      Tror absolut att människan kom till när någon experimenterade. Kanske en amöba med kemiintresse som råkade glömma SIV-regeln?
      I definitely believe that humans came into existence when someone was experimenting. Perhaps an amoeba with an interest in chemistry accidentally forgot the acid in water rule?
