Good question Pigmeat; it's one that has kept many DXers up late at night, wondering.

No, they do not have knees. In fact, they do not even have legs; their pelvis rests directly on their feet, which accounts for the odd waddling motion when they walk on land.

Wow, I had to look that one up, but, yes, you are probably right.

This thread is  a fine example of how the HFU community can work together to educate us all.

I won't, Alfy.

BTW, someone near and dear to you told me it was time for your flea and cootie dip. With this corona virus causing panic at the pet stores,I told her to take you in for a double dip at Rural King. Be sure to wave at all the kiddies as you're soaking in that big galvanized tub out front, it sets a good example.
