I once watched a SF series about a guy who had received a brain transplant and the donor was a serial killer (or something like that). Obviously all kinds of murders happen right after that. This was in the late 70s and was a bit weird. (I also remember a pseudo scientific film about a plant witnessing a murder and setting off the ECG machine every time the murderer appeared in its sight. Quite scary)

"The Island" is a film that explores this topic.Originally posted by zeitghost1960s SF all about Organ Leggers and Organ banks and stuff.
Quite prescient considering they'd only just done the first heart transplant at the time & kidleys were only transferred from identical twins and such.

Well, there was an interesting article on the Economist a couple of weeks ago, advocating legalising the organ-selling trade as it will resolve the scarcity of donors. Maybe they should just populate Uk's roundabouts with "Harvester Units"Originally posted by TrollPerhaps we could do something on Ebay - a sort of futures market where you buy the option to first dibs on motorcyclist body parts in the event of an accident.

That would have beentoo scary for Mrs BI. The BB can be more easily disguised for a "SuperTourer" (i.e.: comfort and sensible riding... yeah, sure)Originally posted by ratewhorebout the same time as your body stays in one piece.

(pre) middle life crisis?
Mrs BI has just resigned, my contract ends in two weeks and no new gigs yet, but hey, what the heck, I have decided I am going to get myself a nice and crispy Honda Super Blackbird.
At 170+ mph, any bets on how long my license will last?Tags: None
