The "belly buttons" reference has been something of an "in joke" of these boards since our estimable Red, following up on a conversation in the chat room about the first elves awakening full-grown at Cuivienen, rushed over to the boards to start a "Did the first Elves have belly buttons" thread. I'm surprised the newer posters are aware of this bit of Downs history (or maybe the comment arose independently).
