Here are some quotes for you for all the good they're going to do: From the Life and Tragedy of Alexandra Chapter XVI They (Grand Duchesses) always spoke Russian among themselves and to the Emperor, English to their mother, and French to M. Gilliard. The elder girls had a smattering of German...

The internet.

Chat, you know the only reason you push this German thing is because it was AA's lifelong language of choice, she refused to speak Russian, her English was ghastly and her French nonexistent, while those who knew Anastasia all said she spoke Russian, English and French and barely knew any...

There will be no testing for the gene. The scientists have already explained there wasn't enough usable specimen to do both the DNA test and the gene test and the DNA test took priority. There is literally, tragically, not enough left of Alexei to do the test. Techically they could get the gene...

Most likely the language was English and the Bolsheviks didn't know the difference. According to everyone they knew, Alexandra spoke to her children in English and, as Olga A. stated "German was never used in the family." You also have to consider that since Alexandra was known and hated for...

Grand Duchess Olga Here is a program on her life, "The Last Grand Duchess." It tells(along with all the other things about her life including AA) the story of how all this happened and why she had to leave Denmark because of the Russians. There are two parts, each almost a half hour long so be...

1. Does your comment 'claim to have found' indicate you do not believe the scientists and the Russian officials have found and identifed Alexei, and are accusing them of lying? 2. Even IF they tested for the faulty gene and got a positive result, would you believe it, or would you still claim...

What do you mean 'claim to have identified?' Are you attacking the sceintists' integrity AGAIN?! That's exactly right. That's the only reason he's pushing it, and you can see his comment 'claim to have identified' which means he's still hanging onto support for his claimant and doubting the...

That's right, thanks for your excellent post with all the quotes from those who knew the family. The doctors especially knew the disease. Nobody needs "Anna Anderson" as a source for this info, Chat! It's well documented in history as well as in books by those who knew the family. And don't...

Why does it matter? What I can't understand about you is that, for years, you tried to prove Alexei didn't have hemophilia, because the claimant you support didn't have it. So now you say there's no way to prove Alexei had it and that's supposed to be a big deal, but how does it make any...

You don't get it. I am saying, no, they can't test for the gene, because there wasn't enough of the sample to do both the DNA and the gene test. I have already posted the scientists' explaination of why such a test was impossible under the circumstances. I am also saying, SO WHAT? They found the...

But that changes nothing! The facts remain the same: Alexei still died in 1918. Tammet was not Alexei just as Anna Anderson was not Anastasia. Whatever caused Alexei to bleed, hemophilia or not, DID help 'bring down the dynasty' due to the influence of Rasputin on Alexandra. There is no 'third...

April or September both predate December. As I tried to explain, clearly, obviously, nothing came of the 'third pit' theory/idea. The story even said 'could' exist, there was never anything definite or official about it. The easy answer is, there was nothing to it and the idea was abandoned and...

I knew it was from a Russian news story, but as I said, the story is no longer valid. That story is dated April 8, 2008, and on Dec. 8, 2008, Nevolin declared the investigation finished, no more info needed, and the case is to be closed next week (Jan. 15, 2009) Interfax-Religion "The outcome...

JK, it is NOT incomplete. Whatever you heard of a 'third burial pit' was obviously an error. In the most recent press release the Russians have stated they are finished and no more investigation is needed: Interfax-Religion "There is no point in continuing any examinations because the...

If I were a scientist I'd want to know what was being said about me and my work. If I saw people doubting my word and work, and leaving the impression they believed something was crooked, I would not be pleased. I think it's terrible that these scientists get abused by the accusations and...

Whatever made him bleed DID bring help down the dynasty, because of the influence of Rasputin on Alexandra. I believe it was hemophilia, but even if it wasn't, it makes no difference as far as Alexei's illness causing problems that helped the revolutionaries overthrow the government, so history...

JK, what difference does it make what caused the boys to bleed, as long as we have a positive ID on the body of Alexei and know he died with his family?

Here is Dr. Coble's answer to the hemophilia question: For the hemophilia - I was asked by the Russians to look into the possibility of testing for the gene, but in the end, we found this to be too challenging for several reasons. (1) We had limited material to work with - only a couple of...

Bear, I spoke to him online. Yes, I'm sure it's him. Yes, he has read this forum.

Since we haven't asked yet, I still don't know if the test has been done yet. It may have been and it just hasn't been put in the press. We'll find out later. But really, I doubt that anyone but Tammet supporters have ever questioned the hemophilia diagnosis, or care to find out if it was...

As was posted earlier, in Nevolin's latest statement he now declares no more testing is necessary: http://www.itar-tass.com/eng/level2....6557&PageNum=0 The outcome of today's conference is historic. The matter has been brought to a close. It has been proved using advanced research methods...

JK, I realize that the reason for you doubting the hemophilia diagnosis is because the Alexei claimant you support, Heino Tammet, had some other blood disorder mistaken for hemophilia, and that has been the basis of your questioning in the past. However, now that Alexei's body has been found and...

Here is some valuable information I would like to share. I have had personal contact with Dr. Michael Coble, and he said we can be assured that: 1. They do have FULL forensic DNA profiles for ALL seven members of the family, (including four separate Grand Duchesses) and we can finally put the...
