Well, that's the theory... in practice, the wounds will start to close up,
when suddenly they'll start oscillating wildy, blood spurting from the
stump. Your head will open it's eyes, look at the bleeding stump, and swear.
"Never could get that f*cking clottocyte driver properly debugged". Then
your eyes will roll back into your head, and the body will attempt to stand,
eventually toppling due to lack of blood, and the head will be heard
mumbling "bugger, maybe I shudda loaded DX into BX, instead of AX, on line
2,435,444,356,443".
