Bond scriptwriters have absolutely no credibility now.
Thank God for that. Here's me thinking there could be a Drax-like space station up there that no one knows of.

Obviously a slow news day, because Ananova reports that German scientists have proved that the scriptwriters who killed off Jill Masterson by covering her completely in gold paint were wrong.

You mean all these years I've been avoiding completely covering my body in paint for nothing?

The truth is that they've just dicovered (wow, Fleming was right all along once again, lol) that people *do* get a quantity of their oxygen through the skin pores-enough for the epidermus and dermus layers. If a person's skin were to be covered up (painted) they'd die, or at least their skin would die and they would soon after.
I just heard this proof recently, but I hadn't known skin suffocation was a myth before-it all seemed logical to me!

My understanding is that even though the skin suffocation wopn't kill you, you'll still die because as the paint hardens, it inhibits your ability to inhale and exhale. So, gradually you can breathe less and less until you finally die. It would be a very miserable way to die too, because you'd be awake and alert, trying desperately to breathe, and being comletely unable to. Gross.

I heard something like this a couple of years ago and it got me thinking.
We have no idea how long Bond was out cold. Why couldnt Oddjob have killed Jill with a Karate blow then carried the body somewhere else to spray her?
Transporting the body there and back would be more inconspicuous than lugging a compressed air spray gun around a Miami hotel. It would also explain the lack of mess in the suite.
