Hi all,
FWIW, the purpose of my thought experiment was to try to show how the
term "race" came to be used in science. Not that science doesn't
sometimes use the term. My own reading suggests that scientists tend
to avoid the word because they are aware of it's "social" origins and
implications.
Best, and thanks to all,
Mark
