(One) Maelin: You know, if you took a guy who had a daughter, and you impregnated her with his sperm, and the child was a girl, and you impregnated -her- with his sperm, and so on and so on, eventually you would arrive at a son who is the clone of the original man. (One) Triana: Way ahead of you, Maelin. (One) Explain: No, Maelin. There's about 100 new mutations per person. (One) Maelin: Oh well mutations yeah (One) Pit: No you wouldn't. Even without mutations, you'd get double genes instead of both the original ones. (One) Maelin: But from a naive recombinant perspective it's true :) (One) Hagi: Also... the mitochondrial DNA would be different :p (One) Maelin: OKAY FINE SO THERE ARE SOME KINKS TO WORK OUT (One) Thakh: That certainly IS a kink, Maelin.
