THE BOOK The Haggunennons of Azizatus Three have the most impatient chromosomes of any life-forms in the galaxy.
 
Where as most races are content to evolve slowly and carefully over thousands of generations - discarding
 
a prehensile toe here, nervously hazarding another nostril there, the Haggunennons would do for
 
Charles Darwin what a squadron of Arcturan Stunt-Apples would have done for Sir Isaac Newton.
 
Their genetic structure, based on the quadruple-striated octo-helix, is so chronically unstable,
 
that far from passing their basic shape onto their children, they will quite frequently evolve
 
several times over lunch. But they do this with such reckless abandon that if, sitting at table,
 
they are unable to reach a coffee spoon, they are liable without a moments consideration to mutate
 
into something with far longer arms - but which is probably quite incapable of drinking the coffee.
 
This, not unnaturally, produces a terrible sense of personal insecurity and a jealous resentment of
 
all stable life-forms, or “filthy rotten stinking samelings” as they call them. They justify this by
 
claiming that as they have personally experienced what it is like to be virtually everybody else they
 
can think of, they are in a very good position to appreciate all their worst points. This appreciation
 
is usually military in nature and is carried out with unmitigated savagery from the gunrooms of their
 
horribly beweaponed, chameleoid death flotilla. Experience has shown that the most effective way of
 
dealing with any Haggunennon you may meet is to run away… terribly fast.
 
 
FORD Great!
 
 
ARTHUR Terrific!
