I worry about attributing anything to genetics--it's too easy. I think of
Katherine Hepburn in "The African Queen" saying "Nature is what we are put on
earth to rise above", and suddenly I find myself agreeing with her.

   Saying "genetics made me do it" is a little like the famous "Determinism
made me do it" defense used by Clarence Darrow. This approach was stifled
by a judge who said "Determinism makes me sentence you to life in prison".
