There are two body shows making the rounds. One has "willing donors" the other is mostly executed Chinese prisoners. The prisoner one is the one that's here in Seattle. Had a long discussion about it with one of the PT student interns at our clinic. He was boycotting the show because of the $$ paid to the Chinese government for the bodies and the shady documentation.
