carrying around a spare tendon or two

[inhumandecency]

I'm looking at an advertisement for a public lecture at the UCSF med school on new technologies for retaining or restoring physical function as people age. One of them is called Transplantation: The Cerberus of the 21st Century.

Of course, they mean "chimera," not "Cerberus." At least, I think so.
At least, I hope so.
At least, remind me not to get any surgery from these guys.
