  The crazy part is that a law which gave surgeons first pick of the
organs would actually make it easier for everyone. Such a law already
exists for compulsory autopsies. The next of kin has no say, and is
merely infomred that there will be an outopsy... sorry. And all the
organs end up in bottles, tested, and then dumped on the tip.

  No one would have to approach the next of kin at the aboslute
*worst* time (ten minutes after brain death). Politicans are gutless.
