it all depends , people looking at corps can draw any conclusions depending on their fantasies:

For example;

Cyclops Myth Spurred by "One-Eyed" Fossils?

Hillary Mayell
for National Geographic News

February 5, 2003
Ever wonder where our worst nightmares come from?

For the ancient Greeks, it may have been the fossils of giant prehistoric animals.


The tusk, several teeth, and some bones of a Deinotherium giganteum, which, loosely translated means really huge terrible beast, have been found on the Greek island Crete. A distant relative to today's elephants, the giant mammal stood 15 feet (4.6 meters) tall at the shoulder, and had tusks that were 4.5 feet (1.3 meters) long. It was one of the largest mammals ever to walk the face of the Earth.

" Schiavo autopsy vindicates husband "

And yet from the same article-
" But the cause of her collapse 15 years ago remains a mystery."
Must be a British thing.

I wonder if her low brain weight had anything to do with the fact that she died of dehydration?

I saw the Coroner's press conference. He plainly stated that she died of dehydration. How, exactly, that "vindicates" the husband is beyond me.

If Greer's brain were in a jar, it would be labeled "Abbe-normal". Too bad he's blind, I'd like him to read this:http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1423759/posts

Wasn't the lawsuit Michael won against the doctor who failed to recognize her eating disorder?

The MD giving the report today admitted he could not determine brain activity on a dead brain.

If she was blind as he stated, how could she be expected to recognize people or objects when tested for cognitive awareness of her environment?

Schiavo autopsy vindicates husband

That's a laugh. The autopsy is irrelevant, because whether she would ever recover fully is not the issue.

It doesn't change a thing! It is still criminal to starve
a person to death when the person's family is willing to
care for her. It is downright unchristian!

...US examiner concludes that brain damage was irreversible ...

So what. That is not what is at issue. The issue is was it degenerating?

Not fast enough for Suncoast Hospice to avoid scrutiny under Medicare guidlines.

You watch. The investigation into Suncoast Hospice for Medicare Fraud is going to come out eventually. They were not operating within those guidlines.

I'm not surprised at the size of Terri's brain, after a month of dehydration.

They said Karen Carpenter's stomach was as big as a raisin when she starved herself to death. I suppose that was a bit of an exaggeration to scare all the anorectic young girls.

But the cause of her collapse and the time lapse between IT and the call to 911 15 years ago remains a mystery
