   The best DNA webinar yet as Debra is a great communicator and her graphics made the handout come to life!\n\nThere was so much information packed into this webinar; definitely worth revisiting the library. Thank you.\n\nThis is a very complicated subject matter, but Debra did a great job explaining it in the webinar. I think it is a webinar that I will have to watch several times in order to wrap my head around all the recombination possibilities, etc. If people will study and learn this, it should eliminate a lot of frustrations in how we try to match with others. I hope you can bring her back for additional webinars. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year. \n\nThis was great. It helped sort things out for me. I'm trying to find my fathers side of the family\n\nTotally amazing presentation. Newish material, very comprehensive and yet toatally understandable! Superb Webinar! I even stayed for the Q&A which I usually don't. Have Debra do MORE!\n\nVery clear explanation. Thank you.\n\nVery clear, concise and useful information.\n\nvery good and her handout went along well with webinar so it'll be easy to refer back\n\nVery helpful\n\nVery Helpful\n\nVery helpful and clear. Only thing I might have liked to see is how things appear on GedMatch/Genesis as well. Thanks so much this webinar!\n\nVery informative - Thank you\n\nVery informative and helpful\n\nVery informative. Will have to watch again to absorb everything. Thanks for handout.\n\nVery interesting additional way to look at DNA matches\n\nVERY interesting. Will definitely rewatch this several times. Answered the question of 'What do I do with the X-match?'\n\nVery interesting. She made it very understandable.\n\nvery useful\n\nVery well explained.\n\nVery, very good! Her Syllabus followed her presentation and was very complete. Hardly ever is the Syllabus that complete!!\n\nVery, very informative!! Please have Debra back.\n\nWell presented, and easy to understand. \n\nWent so fast, hard to follow. Will have to look at FTDNA, etc. to see if I can duplicate her logic.\n\nWill watch again as soon as this one is posted on your site. Thank you!!!\n\nWonderful new topic on the X-DNA ... answers many questions on this.\n\nWould like more like this.\n\nWow! Helpful! I'll have to listen to this more than once.\n\nWow!!!!! Two outstanding webinars in one day. This evenings webinar by Debra Smith Renard "Which Spot Does X Mark, Anyway? X-DNA Testing in Action" was absolutely fascinating. So must new information to think about and get familiar with. Will be watching the webinar many more times. \n\nWow, who knew??? Excited about going back to look at X matches. Thanks, will definitely watch this again.\n\nWow,my mind is stuffed with new info and ideas. I had played around with the X chromosome before, but really had no clear idea what I was looking at with various matches. Gotta go check - I think the X chromosome matches on some cousins, one of whom was looking for her birth father, may mean they are paternal 1/2 sisters!\n\nXcellent presentation\n\nYikes-so much to learn

   % of pass down was interesting and to use 15cM for X.\n\nA very interesting and comprehensive webinar on X DNA.\n\nAbsolutely brilliant webinar which will help me move forward with my DNA researches to knock down some of my brick walls and confirm other theories.\n\nAnother way to determine relationships of dna matches\n\nBe great to have another webinar on this subject\n\nBest I've ever experienced! Let's do this again and again and again!\n\nClean, concise and relevant!\n\nDebra did a great job of breaking down the X-DNA distribution, especially between siblings and half-siblings.\n\nDebra's webinar was the most useful webinar I have heard to date. I have taken week-long DNA courses and listened to countless DNA lectures. No lecturer has ever demystified X-DNA.\n\nDespite the good information about X DNA, I find myself still unsure about parts of it. Will have to re-watch the webinar and perhaps do some work with my results to get a better handle on it. Good webinar.\n\nDNA is complicated, but this webinar gave me insights about x-DNA that I did not know. For example, that X and mitochondrial are different, and how to use the X to figure out whether an autosomal match is paternal or maternal.\n\nexcellent\n\nexcellent handout and excellent presentation. presenting speed was paced to understand.\n\nExcellent information - thanks!\n\nExcellent presentation!\n\nExcellent speaker!\n\nExcellent special topic information and speaker. Well prepared and presented.\n\nEXCELLENT!\n\nexcellent!\n\nexcellent!\n\nExcellent! Thanks!\n\nExcellent!! I can't wait to watch this again to reinforce what I learned today. I have a case I've been trying to solve that I know I can solve now that I watched this webinar.\n\nExcellent, thank you. \n\nExcellent, will have to watch again. Had to leave for a meeting Thanks\n\nExcellent.\n\nExcellent. definitely will re-watch!\n\nExcellent. Thank you. \n\nExcellent; although x-DNA is described in Blaine Bettinger's book, this presentation was very clear and the example was also helpful.\n\nGood topic. Thanks.\n\nGreat information on a topic that can be confusing. Thank you.\n\nGreat information! Thanks so much!\n\nGreat overview and refresher, plus examples and tips for X-DNA use. Enjoyed the presenter.\n\nGreat program...even as I have had to use X Chromosome analysis to find my grandfather's family, this program helped my better understand more about X Chromosome usefulness. Thanks for the great program...Debra Renard should be used more often. \n\nGreat review of a topic and she added lots of new rules to add!\n\nGreat webinar on X DNA.\n\nGreat. I hope to use it to break a brick wall!\n\nI can hardly wait to apply what I learned today. Well, the parts I understood at least. lol This was mostly over my head, but I can now see some benefits to learning and applying X Matching. Thanks\n\nI really hadn't thought about where my xDNA was coming from my father. I seem to have many more matches on his paternal side and that could possibly account for some of that. Debra Renard was explained very clearly; I just need to go back and look at the charts again. Thanks so much.\n\nInformative, helpful. I wish I could have all my X-DNA info and doubts on hand in order to ask pointed questions...\n\nInteresting, but a little hard to wrap my brain around. I understand, I think, but figuring out how to use it will be more of a challenge. Bravo for the topic!\n\nIt was very helpful in that it confirmed that I am on the right track with the understanding that I am developing from my own research re the X chromosome. The legacy charting tip was also very helpful!\n\nLoved it! I even took time out from school to watch it. Thank you so much! \n\nLoved the questions posed and answered...helped clarify what had been taught\n\nLoved the real-life examples!\n\nLoved the topic. Enjoy any DNa info I can get. She was wonderful.\n\nLoved today! Please have Debra Smith Renard back again. A whole new way to look at X-DNA. Excellent can't wait to watch again.\n\nMaybe the best webinar ever. So many new ways to look at DNA. A definite re-watch.\n\nMind boggling topic but introduced me to X dna concept.\n\nmore please\n\nNice overall explanation of X-DNA and its application to genetic cousin matching\n\nNow I'll pay more attention to X in my matches.\n\nOh, so many new avenues to pursue!!!\n\nOne of the best webinar presentations I have ever seen on Legacy. Peease bring Debra back for more DNA explanations.\n\nOpens up a whole new world. Thanks a lot.\n\nOutstanding presentation and syllabus.\n\noutstanding!\n\nOutstanding! Must re-watch, probably a number of times to absorb all that was presented. Top quality webinar - thank you.\n\nPlease more on X DNA.\n\nReally needed this one! Thanks!\n\nShe is a very good teacher!\n\nSuper useful to me right away.\n\nTerrific webinar! A definite re-watch! Thank you! : )\n\nThank you for helping me understand the basics of X DNA and how I can use it!
