Ginger waddles in, having gained 10 pounds from Jen *mentioning* 
movie popcorn.  (BTW: my cousin saw it at midnight and enjoyed it)

Now to business.  Heirs and rules of inheritance vs 
ancesters/descendants.

I have flipped and flopped posts around between those 2 categories, 
and I think I finally have them sorted out.  They seem to fall into 2 
types, which, unless someone objects, I have sorted as follows:

Heirs and rules:  Posts about things which people have inherited or 
may inherit.  Property, animals, elves, and traits (ie: red hair) are 
included.  

Ancest/descend:  Lineage (real or speculative) of the characters.  
Also includes the great CoS debate.

The latter is a bit heavier than the former, but we haven't seen the 
12 GP posts, so I'm comfortable leaving it at that.  There is, of 
course, a lot of overlap.

I will edit the definitions unless someone has objections.

Only 206 posts to go in genetics and WW population and I'm done with 
my assignment.

Ginger, with a nasty case of hiccups.
