| Cloud's Transitive
Principle of Kinship: * |
| If Alvin is
related to Bruce, and Bruce is related to Carl, then Alvin is related
to Carl. |
| |
| This definition is modeled after the mathematical Transitive Principle
of Equality: |
| If A = B, and
B = C, then A = C. |

* Definition by
Tom Cloud as a joke, but it is a practical expression
of the application of dna data in genealogical research.
