Did anybody pick up on how the fingerprint doesn't come back? I wonder why that is.

I sliced off a fingertip once and it grew back, fingerprint and all. It's
a
fingerprint, though, I'm not sure it's
the

Commented separately, but I had a sliced off thumb print come back. Good 1/8" off the face of my thumb.

I have heard that fingerprints are not genetic, but instead form in utero from the random motions of amniotic fluid.
