A little superglue and voila, Robert's your parent's male sibling.

Hmm. Come to think of it bone material might be on that list of
stuff that superglue doesn't work on, right after Every Single Damn
Thing That I've Ever Tried To Use Superglue On In My Life. What do
paleontologists and Medical Examiners on cop shows[1] use anyway?

2: Why no, as a matter of fact I _don't_ want to hear yet again
about how the tv series character is almost nothing like the
one in Kathy Reichs' books, thank you very much.

The important thing is that the main way that she isn't
like the autistic lady on BONES is that the character in the books
is a freakin' moron.

Someday I'd like a mystery where the set-up is "this
guy/gal did something every PI in fiction does and six weeks
later, when we found the bullet-ridden corpse out on Ambush
Point, we began the investigation."
