As a Corpsman on the Surgical Ward at USNH Quantico a lifetime ago several of my patients were under treatment for Pilonidal Cyst. A disgusting lesion that, as far as I am aware, results from nothing more than poor hygiene. In the decades that have ensued since my days as a Ward Corpsman, I have never again heard of Pilonidal Cyst until your post.

Thank you - you have described Takei with precision.
