Hi Word Imp!
Gazogene...well, i think that it's definitly a kind of gene, maybe one that causes a lot of gazing into space or daydreaming?
Gazogene is the gene that is responsible for creating petrolheads. Every person, be it man, woman or child, who enjoys any kind of motorsport event, contains the gazogene. It is usually an inherited gene, but can lie dormant and come to the surface when a previously unknown gazogene starts dating a known gazogene. If the relationship thrives, they produce gazogene-positive offspring, as it is an exceedingly dominant gene.
