We had an organ protection idea before, but I think it involved subcutaneous kevlar. I think this one falls into WIBNI territory. |

By the way, if you survey those male swimmers I think you'll find they already... oh, never mind. |

This idea really strikes my fancy, for some unidentifiable reason. Maybe it is the systematic inversion of trendy thought. Maybe it is the detachable penis (the subject of one of my very few recurring dreams - but that's another story). Maybe it's the idea of a boxing commentator: "Ooh, Sonny takes a hit to the kidneys, er, to the side where his kidneys should be."Thank you, lubbit. |

There was a chapter in "Consider Phlebas" where the hero attends a sort of 'accident party' where the guests have all been surgically altered for the evening to look as if they have been in terrible accidents. Many of them have organs and intestines hanging out of them, encased in invisibly thin film bags. |

not exactly on topic, but they are experimenting with cancer treatments in which the entire organ (the liver, say) is removed so that it may be more energetically irradiated without harming surrounding tissues. They then put the thing back in and away you go. |

An extension of this idea would enable easy replacement of failed organs or even organ upgrading. |

Plug-n-play organs.. nice. bun, although the concrete is perhaps not necessary. Also, lacks RFID (dont wanna lose your spleen, now do you?) |
