How useful are the stats when I have the option of not answering if I feel uncomfortable with the question (which is what I opted for)? Also, with the whole black/white thing being really arbitrary, how useful is it really? By which I mean that the only truly black people in this country are the recent immigrants from Africa, and the only 100% "white" people are from places like Iceland where the immigration rate is so low and the genetic pool so shallow that scientists study it. Anyone whose family has been here (or continental Europe) for a generation or two starts getting really blended.
And anyway, it still doesn't answer why my Chiropractor wants to know.
