not at all like her daughter Lapis Lazuli... not surprising once you learned
that she was no genetic relation to her own daughter... whose genetic mother was
Maureen.
Some of the above I learned later; all of it I mention now in order to
dismiss it.
That panel of mathematicians consisted of Libby Long, Jake Burroughs, Jane
Libby Burroughs Long, Deety Burroughs Carter Long, Minerva Long Weatheral Long,
Pythagoras Libby Carter Long and Archimedes Carter Libby Long-Pete and
Archie-one bome by Deety and the other birthed by Libby and these two women sole
parents to both young men-Deety being the genetic mother of each and Elizabeth
the genetic father... and I refuse to sort that one out at this point; let it be
an exercise for the student. I would rather offer you one more; Maxwell
Burroughs-Burroughs Long-then conclude by saying that all these weird
combinations were supervised by the family geneticist for maximum reinforcement
of mathematical genius and no reinforcement of harmful recessives.
Watching these geniuses at work had some of the soporific excitement of
watching a chess match but not quite
