3-Armed Baby, Surgery

(AP) Doctors in Shanghai, China are assessing the boy's physical condition before deciding whether to remove the extra limb or not. If I were to learn that I had been born with 3 arms and the third was removed, I would be pissed. I doubt anyone, ever, hasn't wished for an extra hand, many times. Even if it were sub "left-hand" in dextrosity, and could only grasp and hold things, what a useful thing it would still be. And, who knows how dextrous it may develop?

What's the down-side to a third arm? Shirts? With a third arm, sewing on extra sleeves would be a breeze. Chicks? If we instinctively breed to gain advantage the kid will be a magnet. Being regarded as freak? A freak who can kick ass! A 3-armed guy is the wrong guy to taunt!

The Chinese should not be allowed to gain such an advantage of becoming the only race of 3-armed people on the planet. It appears they have the lead, for now. The race race is on!
