New definition of ‘dead’: PA doctors to suspend gunshot victims between this life and next

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/03/26/ne...-and-next/

ain't science wonderful? (beats praying for the victims)
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups

Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!

I don't get it. If the candidate for the procedure failed to respond to attempts to restart their heart, the odds seem pretty slim that after making them a popsicle, then, then their hearts will restart. Seems like an unrealistic protocol if you ask me.
