Way to go, Striker!! I've been using this reasoning for a number of years now. When my daughter (now 10) was born, the hospital insisted on listing her race as 'black'. Her mom's black, I'm white. I went back to the administrators, and told them to correct it to 'human'. They said that that was not allowed, due to state regulations. I said something on the order of 'Bugger state regulations!', and insisted on 'human'. They filled it in as 'mixed', which apparently is allowable in Maryland. I tend to use 'ethnicity' in place of race.
