actually, in the vernacular of the times, he was calling you retarded - Down's Syndrome, one of the most prevalent (and easily recognizable) forms of mental retardation, is based on an extra copy of chromosome 21 (this phenomenon is known as 'trisomy'). This leads to a large variety of well-known effects on individuals with the disease, and as it is genetic in origin, we have no current method of treatment or cure (beyond antibiotics to improve immunoresponse and superdoses of amino acids).

i'm surprised you didn't know this, and write us a 3000 word primary-source guide to the differences between those with three copies of c.21 and those without. As such, I filled in for you, because I don't care what anyone thinks - I love those goofy bastards [/matt dylan]
