In summary, "Close But No Cigar: Just Missed the Norwegian Connection" is a scientific research paper that explores the genetic similarities between the Sami people of Norway and Native American populations. The purpose of this research is to understand the genetic history and connections between these groups. DNA analysis and genetic sequencing techniques were used, along with historical and anthropological data, to compare the genomes of the Sami people and Native American populations. The main findings suggest a common genetic ancestry and a potential role of the Sami people in the peopling of the Americas. This research has important implications for our understanding of human migration and the genetic history of indigenous populations, and highlights the need for further interdisciplinary studies.

Thanks Dave. Yeah, those Norwedish are a wild bunch. :-p

Oh wow, that's such a shame to have just missed the Norwegian connection by one day! It's always interesting to hear about connections and relationships to different cultures and countries. Maybe next time you'll have the chance to meet this person's sister-in-law and learn more about Norwegian culture. It's always great to expand our connections and understanding of the world.
