Re: Bite the hand that feeds you (News).
Maybe this is me underestimating Chinese medicine ... and maybe this is me overestimating American medicine ... but I don't think this guy's chances are good for his arm being successfully 75% (or 90% or 100%) functional. Even if the arm doesn't die from lack of blood flow, I'm not sure how good the Chinese team will have been at getting the nerves lined up; and it's more than just lining them, as the nerves have to re-ennervate on their own and that can take years. Just ask any victim of spinal paralysis.
This is a pretty sad story, and it just reconfirms my belief that sometimes good people get burned when doing good things and it's just a shitty part of life. (A human example would be the scene in the movie Crash where the black kid is taking the statue of the patron saint for travelers out of his coat pocket.)

Re: Bite the hand that feeds you (News).
Heard about this while sitting in the clinic for half of Spanish Class gushing blood out my nose.
This is a strange happening. In general. Poor guy though. It would suck to get your arm bitten off by an animal you thought you trusted. How do they go about reattaching totally severed limbs? |

I find it eerie that in the croc's mouth, the guy's hand looks fake. It's like my brain refuses to register it being real.
