OOoo I've always wondered about this.
I'm 1/2 German (Father 100%German) and I have his skelatal structure.
He grew up in the depression and his parents were VERY old when they had him...so there are no medical records from those times. No 'family stories' to suggest TOS...but I have a picture of his Mother at about age 65 and she's got the 'potato shoulders'. They were all very hard workers.
Mother's side is Welch.
I will strive to keep a closer watch on my daughter's complaints and remind them of how TOS starts out. I've complained much about the bookbags.
