Here is the BBC News story about the Dutch hoax
Oh darn. I’m too late. I was going to say I thought it was neither disgusting nor outrageous (as some had suggested). I figured a show like that would not only mean the “winner” would get the needed transplant, but the “losers” as well because there would be so much support for them. And, a lot of other people that otherwise wouldn’t have received transplants would get them too because of the publicity. It sounded brilliant to me.
As usual, the Dutch are well ahead of the rest of the world. As usual, some people inside and outside of the media make negative knee-jerk reactions without thinking through all of the possible outcomes.
I find it more pathetic than revolting. But I don’t have mine out for another 2 weeks yet.
Let me say that I have spent to much time reading this board.
After reading the title my first thought was “Steak and Kidney pie. When come back, bring pie.”
Sorry.
