It is not my own choice of language, nor is it my opinion, as it is only used when I am directly quoting what someone wrote or said at the time the events took place. No offense is intended.IN THIS EPISODE: You wouldn’t think this would be Weird Darkness material, but there is an unsolved mystery here more than 130 years in the making. Dissecting the human nervous system is a taxing task—and in some cases, very little is known about the people whose bodies wound up on anatomists' tables. In 19th-century Philadelphia, an anatomist dissected and mounted a human nervous system. Now researchers are trying to figure out whose remains are stretched out in a glass case. And it’s proving to be quite difficult.
