@razibkhan Keep meaning to look into convergence at known pigmentation genes, mention it brief in discussion here:http://biorxiv.org/content/early/2014/09/30/009803 …
@razibkhan think we are jumping to conclusions on pigmentation of ancient individuals based on being ancestral at Eu SNPs, convergence poss.

@razibkhan Also think the same could be true of Lactase, we may simply be missing alleles,although I've not followed that so closely.

@Graham_Coop@razibkhan statements need to be specific, such as "ancient euro individuals lacked variants that cause phenotype X" -
@VinJLynch
@razibkhan They usually are phrased like this, but then proceed w.o. thinking without mentioning convergence. -
@Graham_Coop@razibkhan maybe they're Bayesians, their prior on some phenotypes is very low :)
