All right, now this is a story about a man illegally selling body parts. It’s important that we report it very carefully. The last thing we want is to open up the story to misinterpretation or cheap jokes.



... Damn.

I've never understood how you can transplant anything taken from a person who is more than a few minutes dead. I mean: cell death, anyone? Isn't it just meat, by the time it's lying at the undertakers'?

I imagined they were cooling them down and pretending they were fresh.

AIUI they were taking bones to be used for grafts - they just use the mineral matrix, then living bone tissue grows into it.
