For the sake of clarity, let me state that I also agree that the two are different strains - I also have both and I also have never had a EE become a WW or a WW become a EE. I simply find the subject of conversation interesting to consider. IME, I would say that it is much more likely that the WWs would fade into EEs, rather than the other way around, but again, I've never seen this happen. Given pigmentation in humans, and how it works, I would also say that is more likely. If we look at skin color or eye color, certain as you did Zack, we can argue that environmental conditions will cause some change, but that change is generally not perminant. Yet, we also must admit, based on the evidence of skin color and eye color, that certainly the possibility of that change remaining permenant does exist. Geneticists agree that brown is the default eye color in humans, yet obviously variations on that (blue, green, etc) do occur, and do breed true, yet we are all the same species (perhaps different strains or morphs, if you prefer). Since both mutation and environment can play a role, I don't think it that far of a stretch to say that something similar indeed could occur with zoas. Some changes may be caused by a specific tramatic event, yet I think it not unreasonable to admit that there is a possibility that such an event can also simply occur randomly or perhaps as a result of a less evident tramatic effect, perhaps something as simply as a swing in dKH levels?
