I called Garland Publishing in NYC to get a date, and got transferred to someone in production, who reported that the books came in on July 30. So it's already published (?!) (And they didn't even tell me.... you figure it out.) Another question: I don't have the citation for recent research (within the last 2-3 years) indicating that the correlation between siblings is statistically significant, which was reported in the general press under headlines like "New proof that homosexuality runs in families." Anybody out there have the citation? It would be interesting if MZ twins had Very High correlation, and siblings Significant Correlation. Geoff Puterbaugh
