It seems a European panel of judges will rule today on an interesting case
involving DNA. It seems two people who were arrested at some stage but were
not found guilty of anything want their DNA records wiped out. I think it's
a human rights thing.

According to an internet search I did the other day, the USA and the UK
combined have some 8m Y-chromosome haplotypes on record. I must say I'd like
to get my grubby hands on them.
