Today I learnt that the medical definition of decapitation isn't quite the same as the common definition.

RedLion:
How do they differ?

Also, for lack of better content and trying desperately to stay on topic I just learned the thermals are much better now than they used to be. Go figure!

Today I learned I've had my head out of all things music scene for a bit too long. I read this thinking "of course the thermals these days are better. technology/new combinations of materials..."

I also learned that one of the girls from my brain bowl team from high school has nearly nudes on the internet. And I was the last person in the word to discover xkcd. :(

Alex C:
He might be talking about an "internal" or "orthopedic" decapitation, which is when the skull is seperated from the spinal column without being seperated from the other connective tissues. A skull can essentially be dislocated under rare circumstances; usually it happens in car accidents. It's usually fatal though.

Like alex c said, medical definition of decapitation is apparently just severing the spinal column of the neck, you don't need to take the whole shebang off for it to count.
