Time out, please. This is an analysis asserting historical evidence, and 
in fact I offered no such analysis. All I did was insist that purely as 
a matter of DNA evidence, the dimensions of the circle of paternity 
candidates be accurately reported before that scientific evidence is 
assessed in the light of historical evidence. Thanks.
