im feeling a little polyploidy myself today!
oh the genetics of it all! be careful, maura, that's a slippery slope that is.... once you get started down that road it's all stacks of books, squinted eyes, and furrowed brows... before you know it you'll have a small lab in your once utility room... inserting bioluminescent genes of rare sea creatures into nearly extinct species plants you made philip rock climb for in some remote, venomous snake infested, war torn jungle of a country no one really even knows the whereabouts... just saying...
lovely paph, by the way ;-)
