Dear colleagues:
First I would like to say hello to all list members and introduce myself
since this is my first post to the list.
I am a dentist with specialty training in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. I
live in Southern California in the city of Torrance, in an area know as the
South Bay. I have been involved in some research that relates to human
facial (and overall) attractiveness and how it influences behavior, social
interaction and overall health.
Please forgive me if my first post is not in line with what is usually
discussed here in your list or if the scientific nature is not of the proper
degree of complexity. My knowledge of Genetics is basic at best and this is
the reason I came here to seek insight and feedback from those who know more
and can provide me with some guidance.
A while ago I remember attending a lecture by a knowledgeable geneticist who
explained the biological and genetic basis for the fact that the mixture of
races is beneficial from a genetic standpoint as it tends to favor
offsprings increasing their chances of survival.

Ragland: Why do you want to remove your address from the heading? Do
you believe it or are entertaining the idea it is a genetic
disadvantage to engage in "Medelian segregation" or legally
miscegenation...

The usual rule in biology is to choose a mate who is like you,
but not /too/ much like you.
Dangers of too much inbreeding include the problems you mentioned.
Dangers of too much outbreeding include half breeds, mule effects
and incompatible gene complexes - effects which have most likely
contributed to the stigma historically associated with such
unions - e.g. see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miscegenation

[moderator's note: that's really up to you; if you're not familiar
with anonymizing, or at least munging, your address in a posted
article, I suggest you read the documentation for your newsreader.
If you're using google groups, however, I suppose I'd be willing to
edit that address for you (this is to avoid spam, yes? It's probably
too late for that, I fear, but if you want me to change your email
addy for you I can do that.) - JAH]
You are suggesting that the mixing of people from different
human groups will create a hybrid vigour that would be beneficial to
mankind as a whole. Although see your point (and partly agree...
