DIY: Trepanation

[Aaron]

Well, I found it pretty disturbing that there are instructions on how to perform a trepanation procedure online.

not just some fly by night (FBN) operation either ... its the WHO! Sad thing is that there is a real need for this information given the percentage of the world that is in civil war or ruled by demagogues.

That's a very interesting link. And while I have my reason's to think the WHO is not the benevolent group most think it is, I have to give them props over this. It's a rare resource and could really help in countries ruled by despots.

My only question would be: To whom is this directed? Local folks won't likely be online (DSL in the hut?) and outside medical help will already know a lot of this. I wonder if it might be for para-medical personnel. missionaries, and other charity driven workers?

I'm surpised this hasn't been found online sooner. Trepanation has been a medical technique for thousands and thousands of years.

You can make a very nice trepaning tool yourself out of the bit for a hole saw and a bit of handle.

I wouldn't be suprised to find anything online. This is the culture that spawned goatse and tubgirl, afterall.

No need to do it yourself. I'll do it for you, for hmm a six pack.

I'll have to give the same response as a previous post-

Man, that Pete Townsend must be pretty darned talented...but why do you think that Pete, Roger, and the dearly departed Mr. Entwistle are not a benevolent group? Is it because of "My Generation"?

Just a sixer? I wouldn do that for anything less than a bottle of Jack, a case of Guiness, and the latest copy of Playboy.

"No, that's just a bit of dried blood. THOSE are his brains."
