Funny you should say that..! I was reading a science fiction novel the
other day set in a vast interstellar hospital catering for all manner of
life forms from all over the galaxy.

In it, two maintenance men were clearing out a blocked pipe (yes, they
have plumbers, even in space..!) and one screwed up his face and said to
his mate:

"Isn't it marvellous..? Of the hundreds of different species we've
discovered all over the galaxy, why is it we haven't found *one* whose
body wastes smell nice..?!"

His mate pondered for a moment and replied "There, my friend, I think you
have touched upon one of the great unsolved mysteries of the universe..!"


Well, it made me laugh.

Yes, but not for wondering whether every species will be similarly fixated
eh? LOL
