Loug Dindsay Did he give himself an anesthetic? If so, how did he manage to operate when he was asleep?

Take care and may God bless.

If the pinky is 50%, does the thumb or index finger have the next highest percent?

Heeeeeere’s Dougy !

Great job, Doug.

If the pinky finger is responsible for 50% of the hand strength, why my insurer only give peanut if I lost that finger in an accident vsvthe others? Why the British raise their tea cup without that finger and why I can raise heavy load without it?

And that surgery was?

Virtually certain that this is a repost of an earlier BION. Anybody else think so?

Well, duh! Of course the little finger is so strong – from all that pinky swearing!

Doug had psychosomatic’s disease…

The muscles that control the fingers are predominantly in the forearm. I’m not sure just what are they measuring to come up with a quantitative value for each finger. Strength flexing, extending, abducting? The hand and fingers are mostly a system of tendons, like cables and pulleys.

An “or not” story. I think he had lazyitus and his operation was getting his arse out of bed.

I should think it’s the middle finger since that gets the most use…

cnn health has a great write up about doug linsay
