Wife and I and out son went to “The Bodies,” in Seattle, which I think is the same format with plasticized Chinese. Parts of this were sickening.

I like the idea of plasticine organs for biology and anatomy departments, but using a whole body is nothing more than a morbid curiosity. There is a lack of diseased organs and such which can be used for study and having them turned into a type of fossil is great, but it should be reserved for research purposes only.

Obviously I’m not up on this. I take it it’s a traveling exhibition.

I think that was the show that came to Rochester. Didn’t they later find out that many of the “exhibits” were from unwilling donors.
