Things researched: decomposition of human bodies in water.

Wikipedia, I have discovered, will tell you the steps of decomposition in humans, but not what humans who have drowned look like. However, Google will quite cheerfully give you a PDF to download of lecture notes from the forensic medicine department at some university about "bodies in water", which is exactly what I was looking for.

I think I like Google better.

(In other news, I apparently have at least one friend who believes we should be having 'normal conversations'. She also does not believe that excited conversations about researching drowned bodies fit this model. I am not sure why she has these erroneous beliefs.)
