His corpse is on display. I can't imagine anything more ironic,unless Hare was used by surgical students.

Movies I'm looking forward to:
Predators
The Last Airbender
Saw VII
Lost Boys 3
Toy Story 3

In the surgeon's museum, there is a book made out of his skin.

It's actually a nice looking book.

docturlough, after 190 years the dead are rarely referred to as corpses anymore unless they have been preserved in formaldehyde. Bacteria like to eat the bits of you that give you the title of corpse.

Opinions are just onions with pi in them.

Hare got away....he was freed and sent to the English border.....what happened to him is unknown.
