Ronn! replied:With two navels.LOL! I had completely forgotten about that. How did they explain *that* particular mutation?
I don't recall what _scientific_ explanation they had for it (perhaps someone else will). However, the obvious explanation was that it gave them an excuse to dress their female characters in midriff-bearing outfits.

Almighty Ruler of the all, Whose Power extends to great and small, Who guides the stars with steadfast law, Whose least creation fills with awe, O grant thy mercy and thy grace, To those who venture into space.
(Robert A. Heinlein's added verse to the Navy Hymn)
