tags: cadaver calculator, online quiz Thanks to my drinking pal (and blog pal) Orac, I now know that, as corpses go, I am worth a fair amount, it would appear, according to the cadaver calculator. In fact, I'd guess that I am worth more dead than alive! How about you? $5150.00The Cadaver Calculator…

Orac, you're not thinking creatively. First, your wife doesn't report your death (assuming that (a) you have a wife and (b) she can get away with it).

Second, call the DI, and offer to sell your lifelike remains (assuming lifelikeness) to them.

The DI gets some Disney people to run some control gizmos through your flesh, turning you int a DI zombie.

They then have you make videos, and do video conferencing, denouncing Darwinism.

$6175.- and I considered a cesarean to be serious surgery.

I think the lifelong diabetes pushed me passed the 4K. I'll have some good, mangled kidneys and retinopathic eyes for someone to dissect someday without the burden of excess fat.

Heh, this reminds me of Lloyd Cohen, who's found a very pointed way to protest the US laws which prevent people from selling their organs (and thereby restrict supply and cause many preventable deaths). He has specified in his will that his organs will go to people needing them, but only if his estate is paid for them. It makes the moral choice exceptionally clear: either pay, and save a life; or stubbornly insist that buying and selling organs somehow violates the sanctity of human life, and condemn a sick person to death to uphold that principle.

$4,340.00. Hmmm...I wonder why I'm worth more than you are, Big Bro.

$4455.

Hmmm. I am not sure how, as a smoker, I manage to come out as more valuable than you, but I'm worth $4140. Of course, I don't drink, so that may put me up there, but still.

They may not just be thinking about selling tissues for transplantation but for dissection as well. People with more health issues may make more interesting subjects, and thus their cadavers may be in higher demand for certain lines of research.

$4325.00 I couldn't get the HTML to copy on my own blog, so I guess my brain is out of the research.
