Well, I don't see any real evidence that environment is a factor. But you are right on with genetics. As far as skin color in certain regions, I just see it as according to migration patterns for the best hospitable environment depending on genetic makeup. Of course in the age of AC and central heating, this varies more now.
When I say sunlight exposure is the only real factor in skin tone, I mean from a genetic selection point of view. If you stick a group of people in Iraq and have them breed for dozens of generations, you'll end up with darker skinned folks. I wasn't suggesting it was only an environmental influence for a single generation.

My in-game character was never anon as far as the forums are concerned. Thanks to my stalkers I'm not anon in RL either. Food for thought.

Genetic selection... I'm not sure how environment has any factor in this. Mutations?? If you stick western Europeans into say Africa would they eventually become black skinned people in a given amount of generations? No. It's a loss of information, it can't be reversed without reintroducing the genes that were stripped away. Much like you can't breed a pair of bulldogs back into wolves. It's just a product of micro-evolution, changes within a breeding selection determining outcome. Maybe you are trying to apply macro-evolution theory to this, which I don't see as a real contributing factor within inter-racial breeding. A dog is a dog. A human is a human. It's all within the same race and no real divergences from that as far as medical science is concerned. Unless you are hinting at something else.

The point is moot because humans no longer are exposed to the sun 12+ hours a day every day. Black people are dark skinned because of vestigial genes which are dominant traits much like brown eyes. It's no longer evolutionarly necessary but it's a dominant gene so it's passed on more often than not.
