I was born here but I was raised in riverside county for twelve years until my HS graduation. We spent a lot of time out in SD because of family though. After graduation I moved to SD for college and work. And that's a good question, my grandfather is actually retired Navy. From what I understand, a long time ago, basically everyone was connected to the military, but SD has become much diverse since the 40's-70's.

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Wow - I bet there's some fascinating stories there. You realise you're gonna have to share a few now, don't you? On a 'related' note: isn't everyone in Europe supposed to be descended from Alexander the Great or something?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

It's based on maths; there are too many of us not to share common ancestry. Here's an article about it: http://phenomena.nationalgeographic.com/...l-royalty/
