kind of embarrassing that the first citation for cli-fi mentions two turkeys (Day after Tomorrow, State of Fear). Oh, well, it’s the story of the genre.

I’m going to check with my Dermatologist first.

Plastiskin is known medically as a hypercolloid dressing, or under the trademarked term, 3M Tegaderm. I’m wearing a 8x10cm patch at the moment, covering an incision site and related hardware.
