DNA: US Indians are actually Russians

I don't normally do American news, but the irony of this one is too much - it looks like North American Indians are actually Russian in origin! For more on the DNA research behind the research see http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2012/01/120203-native-americans-siberia-genes-dna-science/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+ng%2FNews%2FNews_Main+%28National+Geographic+News+-+Main%29

Thanks God no-one told McCarthy when he was hunting communists!
