Got bones to pick?  Here's a site for you.

Good Housekeeping's Site of the Day<br><br>The Skeletons Project<br>http://www.eskeletons.org/<br><br>The Skeletons Project brings comparative anatomy into everyone's living room. Created at the University of Texas at Austin with funding from the National Science Foundation and private industry, "The eSkeletons Project website is devoted to the study of human and primate comparative anatomy. It offers a unique set of digitized versions of skeletons in 2-D and 3-D in full color, animations, and much supplemental information." The comparisons of skeletal structure range from human beings to gorillas to the tiny mouse lemur. The visitor can select the particular species, the bone/s to compare and then specify the view. Try a few of the comparisons; you'll be amazed how much in common the human bones have with the 'lesser' species! Here's a great opportunity to 'bone up' on your anatomy!
You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.

Jack London (1876-1916)
