We're All Neurologists Now!

Back in the Day when National Lampoon produced a good magazine every month, there was a comic strip that featured a doctor/lawyer character who would perform shoddy medical services then represent the victims in a lawsuit.

I never dreamed he was a real person, but David Allen found him representing Terri Schaivo.

David gives the doctor/lawyer a hand with a few more things the autopsy didn't rule out like:

- Abduction by Martians.
- Torture by Klingons.
- Zombieism.
- Mind Swapping by the Great Race.
- The possibility that she just didn't feel like talking to anyone for 15 years.
- A Nanobot yeast infection.
- Lycanthropy
- The Heebie Jeebies
- A second gunman on the grassy knoll.
- Voodoo.
- The 7th level clerical spell "Finger of Death" from Dungeons & Dragons.
- Somebody shouting "Boo!" real loud.
- Mrs. Schiavo having suffered heart failure after having a vision of her future where ghouls like you make money feasting on her and her husband's misery.


David Allen is the best friend a doctor/lawyer/neurologist in the wings could ever hope to find.
