|Okay, this brings up a question that's surfaced several times in the local
|group: We know that people still occasionally, even frequently, goblinize
|into orks and trolls. Are there still transformations from normal to elves
|and dwarves?

Still? There never have been. Dwarves and Elves were *all* born that way.

Were there transformation into elves and dwarves to start
|with?

Nope.

The historical text in the main SR3 rulebook (and its predecessors)
|seem to indicate that there were not any such transformations, but the
|population figures tend to indicate that there had to be.

Why? Humans gave birth to elves and dwarves.
