"Here again the problem is what defintion of race are you referring to  and for what population. Your last sentence seems to say that the taxonomic and population defintions fail to hold but that the lineage definition is fine. Whereas the Britannica article says that races do not exist in ""any biological sense"". It is also incorrect to say  as Britannica does  that genetic indicators cannot divide ""races""  as we've documented in the wikipedia article they can do so approximately. The Britannic article is wrong because it states conclusions that are not supported by the data  it goes too far.  22:55, Jan 11, 2005 (UTC)
