Yeah. I'm not sure just *how* humanoid, but definitely in having two pairs of limbs, bipedal, erect, one head, two eyes, two ears, one nose, one mouth, etc., with six digits on each limb (incidentally, at least one, now extinct, culture removed the sixth finger of each hand at adulthood! Why is not known, but they were called "The Five-Fingered Ones".) -- "It's bad manners to talk about ropes in the house of a man whose father was hanged." - Irish proverb http://members.tripod.com/~Nik_Taylor/X-Files http://members.tripod.com/~Nik_Taylor/Books.html ICQ: 18656696 AIM Screen-name: NikTailor
