I was listening to an interview with a pathologist on the radio today.
Dr Temple-Camp, New Zealand's leading pathologist talked of his new book Final Diagnosis and some cases of death, disease and murder that prove that sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.

Of interest to Robert might be his belief that bodies have souls and he told of a study made of dying and dead people to investigate this. Temple-Camp said that in the studies, dying people were weighed very accurately just before death and then just after the point of death and the measurements were compared. On average the difference (I think) was 15 grammes. Before tour resident Wainuiomata scatologist interrupts I need to say that evacuation of waste, blood and bodily fluids was controlled and not a factor in this. It is intriguing and Temple-Camp thinks that the 15 grammes might represent the soul departing the body.
Food for thought?

I don't understand music theory but I don't wish to denigrate those people who do. Oh, and for those who do like and understand music theory denigrate means 'put down'.
