Salvation for any given individual is always a real possibility at any time, either in the earthly or the post-mortem existence.
We report the first quantified assessment of the potential error caused by scavenging in post-mortem measurements of predation in a slug- carabid system.
For the current study, isolation sites included blood (n=18), multiple organs post-mortem (n=2), and amniotic fluid or placenta (n=2).
At post-mortem, all other organs were grossly normal.
It is recognised that this may represent an underestimate of the incidence as some cases will only be diagnosed at post-mortem.
The message traffic in a run of the system is logged and can be used for post-mortem debugging and even replaying entire sessions.
That the resulting improvised 'lecture' may not always withstand in every detail a critical post-mortem is perhaps beside the point.
The trilobites are disarticulated and generally fragmentary, which may indicate that they have been subjected to post-mortem transport.
