As a related note, see the episode of STAR TREK: NEXT GENERATION when Troi became mysteriously pregnant, gave birth, watched her "child" grow up and die all in the course of a day. It could also be interesting to compare to the monstrous pregnancy in Lar von Trier's TV series THE KINGDOM. Don Larsson ----------------------------------------------------------- Donald F.
