It is very interesting to see the human body inside out, literaly. It made me think of how much of a miracle life is, the fact that with all of these nerves and muscles and blood vessels and arteries that we have that things dont go wrong more often, and that I'm lucky to be healthy. I would reccomend going to see it. Its only midly shocking, but very educational. I thought the exhibits were tasteful and insightful.

Color me contemporarily confused, but I see these businesses always chock a block full of customers and then *poof*. Like Tower Records. People were in Tower at midnight. Dunzo. I miss CompUSA.

I don't think I could stomach it anyway, but if I could I wouldn't go for that reason alone. Here’s a link to the Globe article from a couple of weeks ago:

The Boston exhibit was Bodyworlds, by Gunther von Hagens. The Boston MOS exhibit is not the same exhibit that is currently in Framingham. The Boston exhibit was Bodyworlds, by Gunther von Hagens.

It's pretty intense. They do really bizarre, artistic things to some of the bodies that is a little unsettling. I recommend it if you're looking for something to do, though I'm not sure if it's worth the $24. I went when the exhibit was at the Boston Science Museum last year. It’s pretty intense.
