so 250 million people? Thats a good amount of people.
That is a lot! Is it a spectrum? do some people recognize very close relatives but not acquaintances etc.?
Wow! At those odds it seems highly likely I know someone who has it and like someone else in this thread said, are good enough at piecing together the other clues that they never had to disclose it.
