I thought the nails went through the wrists, through the bones, rather than the hands becuase couldn't take the weight of the body but the wrists could.
It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
That's the way I've heard it, too, between the radius and the ulna.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Right. Askye's point is what the experimenters had to find out, in the Renaissance. Or later? Anyway, some doctor in France hung dead arms from a nail in his door lintel until he figured out a way that would actually hang for 3 hours. The ones with nails through the hands just slithered out between the tendons and bones and the arm flopped off after a few minutes.

On-topic: any word on how the board is doing post-premiere?

You, my friend, are a goddess! I'm not even in the top 20 anymore! This is happy making. It means I must post less. Downside it also means I'm much busier.
