I would have totally disbelieved this but for the recent article on the impossibility of cloning brindle/ tortoiseshell cats: the color codes are randomly activated in the later stages of development; any cells you select to copy will be either black or white but never brindle. Seems there's something in humans too - identical except for skin pigment? Weird.

Re: Real-Life Weirdness
More strictly, one is pink and the other is brown. They've got identical features other than pigment, so saying they belong to different races is muddling the issue
(which is already complex). Tabloid magazines and TV do this regularly with the odd set of fraternal twins with the same disparity in pigment (but otherwise very similar mixed-race features).

In reality, race doesn't exist, or at least doesn't exist as something that can be determined by vision alone. |

And, leaving that at that...
A series of explosions rattle Eastern Wisconsin, with no readily discernable cause or after effects. Mi-Go mining projects in progress? FBI and Wisconsin National Guard suppressing a demonic uprising?
