yeah.. the broken wing was poorly incorporated with 'time-traveler's syndrome'.

No, because James's legs were tiny and weak before he could morph, due to him not using it, but after he morphed, his legs were fit and strong.  He got back more mass than he started with.
maybe he got the mass from somewhere else in his body?

Well, as for the regain of mass, I think that it is probably derived from z-space. We know that the excess mass for larger morphs has to come from somewhere (how else would they grow into, say, a rhino) and I think that it makes sense that it's drawn from the lack of mass in z-space. If all positive matter has an opposite equal of anti-matter, it would make sense that when anti-matter is drawn out of z-space, it would turn into positive matter, thusly augmenting your original mass. Least that makes sense to me lol

Or maybe the Andalites created a huge "mass battery" that floats in some far off place in Z-space for anyone who morphs.

Did Visser 3 still have the same cut that Alloran had in TAC? 'Cause they never mention V3's scar. But Alloran got a nickname because of it.

If Alloran had a scar before morphing, and V3 now doesn't have a scar, wouldn't that negate the recent injury theory?

The morphing also involves DNA (no duh!). So I belive that the DNA is stored with your mass in Z-space. When you demorph you morphs DNA and mass moves to Z-space, while your mass and DNA pops out. You reicve all of your DNA that is there, but let's say that when you morphed you did not have a kidney therefore no kidney DNA. When you demorph then you still won't have a kidney becuase the kidney DNA isn't there. Also for morphs maybe it only stores the DNA. And if you where blind or deaf before you morph the DNA for sight/hearing is still there and is only bocked by your brian. When you demorph you wouldn't be blind/deaf becuase your DNA is there and the "blockaid" in your brian goes away.  
Last night, I laid back in my bed staring up at the stars, and I thought to myself ... I probably should fix that hole in my roof.

We have Brians in our heads? I thought we had brains. hmm... I was way off. ;D

The kidney that was removed doesn't have it's own separate DNA, DNA is constant throughout our bodies. DNA governs how many Kidneys we have, if your DNA said that you don't have a kidney, then you don't; but since human DNA says  we do, and that we have two, we do.

Well, there are large differences between the organ which gives us the capacity for abstract thought and Peter Griffin's dog.

You'll find I'm a grammar nazi, so be prepare for an occasional correction here or there.

Yet somehow, I don't believe you. :)

We've had a thread about the tattoo aspect of this thread, but not about surgery. That's a good thought.

That made me think. I have two 6" long bolts (essentially) holding my legs in place. what would happen if I had morphed, would those bolts morph as well? Would they morph back? 'Cause if I morph back, I wouldn't have need for those bolts. My condition would've been reversed.

Theoretically, they should work like the morphing suits, wouldn't they?  And I think it's been said that you need to concentrate on the morphing suit to make it appear when you morph, on top of just concentrating on your human form.  So, theoretically, you ought to be able to choose whether the bolts reappear or not.

The bolts are inside his body though, so for all intents and purposes, I'm going to parallel them to food in one's stomach - they disappear when he morphs, and reappear when he demorphs.

 The problem is that bolts and newly healed bone can't exist in the same place at the same time, which is where the complications arise. Either one set of mass is ignored/left in Z-Space, or one is displaced - either way, it's going to hurt, especially if it's random (half the metal and half the bone is displaced).

What does it mean to be free?
