Puzzle Description:

A bit of genetics

This puzzle was about dominant gene characteristics.

Thanks for your entry!

Curved finger, free earlobes, and tongue roller

Neat concept!

Smile logic required for the, uh, tongue in the lower right.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by blurglecruncheon.

Found to have a unique solution by valerie.

Oh! I had *no* idea what this was until I saw #3. Then it popped! Neat!

Wow, is it too late to add the dominance of the gene for six fingers? It'd be perfect for this puzzle.... It's a good illustration of the difference between dominance and prevalence; six fingers is dominant, but it's a rare gene.... I had always wished I'd been born with (and left to keep) six fingers. It might have come in handy (pardon the pun) for playing the piano....

Actually, when the title revealed, my perverse mind read the top right as a goat head (a symbol of the devil) bottom right as a flame, and the odd hand reminiscent of the Lu Cypher character in Angel Heart, one of my favorite movies.
