It amazes me to no end how many people don't know the difference between arterial and non-arterial bleeding.
The best example of arterial bleeding I've seen so far was a guy who severed 3 fingers (and most of the 4th) with a table saw. It looked like the room had been shotgunned with blood. All over the walls, the ceiling, the floor, the saw...He was cool as a cucumber when we got there though, unlike the ones who aren't cut that badly and think they're knocking on Death's door.

"If some scruffy dude tries to knock down my door in the middle of the night (granted, I'm not a fugitive from justice), I doubt that I would wait an inordinate amount of time to hear him make his little statement about being a "Bail Bondsman ..." or whatever before rotating my safety/selector to something other than the peace and tranquility position." - Army Chief
