 Although a very interesting fact about the Icelandic gene pool has just been

Why do you think all those young men went a-viking, anyway?
And don't count on a similar study for the men anytime real soon.  It seems 
there is a genetic marker they can use to trace gene drift through the 
mother, or simply over the generations, but if they have developed one to 
trace it through the fathers I am unaware of it.  It is possible it has been 
discovered, and I don't know about it.  Perhaps even probable, since I am not 
connected to academic circles.
