   So...  The assistant was trying to find a solution, and suggested the zoo.    
   However, it seems that the MRI at the zoo cannot scan a human.  As such,    
   the assistant did a piss-poor job of doing her research.  She should ahve    
   contacted the zoo, and find out if it would even work.   
      
   If it was suggested and it really was an option, that would be one thing.    
   But for it to be suggested and it STILL not be an option, is quite    
   another.  It is obvious to me that the suggestion was made in jest, and    
   was in poor taste.  The bigot assistant needs to be terminated.
