Mary Roach Quote

One of the seminar organizers joins me. Is Yvonne giving you a hard time? My nemesis is none other than the cadaver beheader. As if turns out, she's also the lab manager, the person responsible when things go wrong, such as writers fainting and/or getting sick to their stomach and then going home and writing books that refer to anatomy lab managers as beheaders.
