Interesting reading the actual letter the FDA sent 23&me

http://www.fda.gov/ICECI/Enforcement.../ucm376296.htm

I do wonder if we will ever know the real story behind this sudden "regulatory" move to stop a service that was doing no harm, and providing something beneficial at an affordable rate to many

I just received a brochure from 23andme a few weeks ago. I put it on the side so I could do it after the holidays. Needless to say, I'm disappointed!
