Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'd think that early sixties would be really early to be able to create a drug that would purposely cause a specific mutation, especially considering that he had to be working without much equipment.

I've heard of a few other twin towns before. I've heard Jumeauville in France referred to as one (which makes sense, since the name means Twin Town), but the internet doesn't seem to back that up.
OK, Mengele is dead. I KNOW that.
And if there were any elderly Nazis under my bed a) Dallas would bark; b) they'd have to be gay elderly Nazis or the forcefield that blocks any heterosexual men from entering my bedroom would have been activate.
