I read about expiriments involving transplanting the head of one monkey onto the head of another monkey... and it worked. mentioned it to my orthopaedist as he was trying to put my s/c joint and my neck and part of my spine back into working order again a while back, the result of my mis-spent youth (boating injuries and all those hours on the rifle range and I would not take back a moment of them)... said I wanted it done...
he started to laugh and told me I would look silly with a monkey's head...
My GP said that with my immune system, rather the lack thereof, I would get such a raging infection that it would never work... sigh...
<g>
but it seems there is a future for it...
now to find someone who wants to trade a slim and healthy body for mine...
or for that matter who wants to take on my mal-functioning brain...
hmmm decisions all the time....
LOL
