I wasn't too surprised with the data actually, nothing really
interesting or that made me say WOW. I tried this back then too (must
be 3 years ago now) http://www.snpedia.com/index.php/Promethease and I
remember it not working for me... I bet it has been fixed, but I can't
comment on whether I'd have been more surprised at it's info output.

If you're interested in the stuff, you might want to check out the

it:
