Today I talked to a girl who had just four fingers on one hand (well, her thumb and three fingers). It looked pretty, hm, natural, as if she was born this way (instead of loosing a finger by accident, like my uncle did). It wasn't, she told me she was born without bones in her thumb and so they removed her thumb and instead made her index finger her 'new' thumb. Anyway, all this just made me remember that as a kid I always wanted to have just four fingers on my hands, because of the four-fingered elves in Elfquest.
