I should observe that Queen Victoria is a famous example of a person marrying a first cousin and producing a large family with said cousin-9 kids total-all of whom survived to adulthood, none of whom had any noticeable genetic problems except one. That one was son # 4, who had hemophilia as a result of a mutation in Victoria's genes, which had nothing whatever to do with her reproducing with her cousin. /soapbox off

Welcome back, dude.
