anybody that does a lot of machine/wood work knows a few friends with missing parts. whole fingers or partials. i had a roommate for years, was a very skilled machinist... we called him "nine and a half" although he was really only missing about 2mm from his right index finger... state compensated him $10k for those 2mm's though.
