Schiavo parents file new court appeal
CNN is reporting the following:
The lead lawyer for Terri Schiavo’s parents filed an emergency petition with the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta late Tuesday, contending he has found a new argument to have Schiavo’s feeding tube reinserted.
The petition submitted by attorney David Gibbs said the federal judges who rejected the previous efforts to have Schiavo’s feeding tube reinserted violated a Supreme Court precedent that requires them to consider the full record, not just the procedural history from the state court.
Maybe they haven’t given up.
Court agrees to review.

To prove my point I am offering $100,000 on a $25,000 wager for ANY neurologist (and $125,000 for any neurologist/bioethicist) involved in Terri Schiavo’s case–including all the neurologists reviewed on television and in the newspapers who can accurately single out PVS patients from functioning patients with better than 60% accuracy on CT scans.
I will provide 100 single cuts from 100 different patient’s brain CT’s. All the neurologist has to do is say which ones represent patients with PVS and which do not.
If the neurologist can be right 6 out of 10 times he wins the $100,000.
UPDATE: Michelle has picked up the CodeBlue offer, as have Jeff Blogworthy and Xrlq.
