you don't and you attempt it, there is a very good probability you'll
be sued back to the stone age.

Are you saying Mr. Sails ain't the suin' kind?
Hmm, that would make a good country song...
Anyway, as somebody else posted, doing a tracheotomy isn't that hard.
Shucks, they gave instructions how to do it on M*A*S*H (one of the only
TV shows I've ever watched) and it worked perfectly.

Heck, I've assisted at so many vet surgeries that not much fazes me...had
to sit on the neck of a filly that jumped a piece of farm equipment in a
fit of pique and opened her gut up so wide her intestines fell out....that
was a trat..she lived and ended up being a quite satisfactory pet for her
owner's kids....jabbing a little old pen knife into someone's neck when
they're turning purple wouldn't be hard to do at all...
