Yeah, I know, but it's a puzzling phenomenon that requires creative thinking. I went with it. :0

You're right, there are 2 different ways it can happen.

I don't know that I've seen the specific article you're talking about but I saw a recent set of twins. So I'll keep my mouth shut.

Does this mean we can still be cybertwins ;)

I am not a human, nor am I an animal.
I have eyes, but cannot see,
and I have hair that you cannot comb.
My brown skin has several layers but this seems a paradox,
because one is smooth and the other is hard.
My skin protects my soft white flesh;
and within my flesh is my opaque blood.

What am I?

One way is not creative at all--just stupid.

Oh, I meant figuring out how it happens takes creative thinking!

If you'd like to say it, go ahead, everyone who's looked at it seems to have seen something on it anyway.

In one case the White mother had slept with an African American man and a White man within a couple of hours of each of them. Both of them fertilized an egg.

In another case the father was bi racial--Black and White. Two of his sperm fertilized two eggs. One of his sperm was dominate with his White heritage, the other with his African American heritage. DNA showed that he was indeed the father of both twins.

There was also another case where the parents were both obviously White. But genetic testing then showed that one of them (I forget which one) did have some African American heritage going back years.

**in my teacher voice** Let's hear from someone other than Drolefille. :)

A sundial is a timepiece that has the fewest number of moving parts. Which timepiece has the most moving parts?

AlphaFrog 05-02-2007 09:44 AM
