Augustin,
AH>months.  The cut was at the back of my hand where the tendons are.  I was

AH>still cringe at the thought of how close I came to doing some real serious
AH>damage.  As it turned out though, I took 3 stitches and am back to playing
AH>Bach and other popular favourites :^)  In fact, I'm applying for a 20K
AH>bursury to do a CD this winter :^)  The whole thing kinda taught not to
AH>look a horse in the face... er... or something like that.  I'm not 
ctually

o
AH>keep hands, fingers, and all other body parts away from power saws!
Ouch. Not just power saws, though. An old friend of mine was in the bush in
B.C. and was cutting underbrush with a machete. He hacked the back of his
hand and severed some pretty important tendons and nerves. Luckily,
when he got to hospital, there was a world-famous surgeon visiting who
specialized in this type of reconstructive surgery.
Now he has almost full use of his hand. He's an artist, so it was very hard
for him.
Moral: wear heavy gloves and be careful out there.
Okay, and don't run with sharp pointy things in your hand, you'll poke your
eye out.. 
Anneka.
