We will all grow rowboats from our asses too.
I’m going to just stand on the coast and after a while I’ll be Aquaman.
If it rains a lot more then can we also expect one of our arms to evolve into an umbrella?

Will the ruling elites develop sticky fingers to count the rolls of cash?
What a moron, we humans are designed to build tools to make the need for evolution obsolete.
MERMAIDS!!! How come the Polynesians have not developed these traits?
Also the idiot saying an ice age would make taller people due to cold, has he not noticed that Eskimos are SHORT!
What a moron idiot this so called scientist is.
So they believe in Lamarckism? Are they against science?
“All my life I’ve been waiting for someone and when I find her, she’s... she’s a fish.”
Junk science gone awry.
And vegetarians will turn into cows.
Well, they may turn into manatees. :-)
