Do you dream about jumping out of planes, hand in hand with a preserved body ever?<br />I saw a programme on BBC where Stephen Fry (famous TV personality) visited Knoxville (in Tennessee, where I live sometimes) and saw the bodies at the Univ. of Tennessee. They put dead bodies all over the place, on the ground, in big dustbins, under trees etc. and they study how the bodies decompose. He said it was very macabre and smelly, but he was fascinated never the less.<br />Blessings, StarStella Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06699491230987143490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-78100671032667724612010-02-26T12:38:30.090-08:002010-02-26T12:38:30.090-08:00I badly want to see this exhibit!

I loved the exhibit of the blood vessels. I was in awe. And you are right...it is not gross at all.Norma Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16012021195725446402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-40081862883053128492010-02-25T02:19:16.437-08:002010-02-25T02:19:16.437-08:00I have heard of this exhibit and it does sound int...I have heard of this exhibit and it does sound interesting.

The complexities of our bodies are truly amazing. I think I would have enjoyed the cheesecake factory better though...and I don't like cheesecake.

It's also been in Portland since we've been here and I missed it. My chances may have run out.<br /><br />I've seen another exhibit since we've been here that was fascinating. It used real embryos, preserved in solution, and followed the birth process from conception to full-term. It was fascinating.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11586429675286969340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-33736576991277087712010-02-24T17:08:35.149-08:002010-02-24T17:08:35.149-08:00Sounds like a real learning experience and an exhi...Sounds like a real learning experience and an exhibit that I would enjoy:)Far Side of Fiftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995757632158408442noreply@blogger.com
