A Rose by any other name... I don't know. It's an antiquated term but, at least they didn't list 'colored'. Is that bad? My Dad uses that term sometimes and I always tease him about it.
I don't understand why someone with a "multi-European" despondency would identify as multi-racial. What, if you're Celtic and Slavic that's multi-racial? Really? I know my wife like to play with people by marking Asian, just because her Grandfather was a Siberian Jew. Given that people self report and self identify, how useful is the racial data, I wonder..?
