Still, the prosecution will offer a variety of evidence linking Nichols to the bombing: detonation cords and blasting caps, as well as the ammonium nitrate, found at his home; plastic drums found there that match fragments at the bomb scene; storage bins rented by Nichols that held bomb components. On top of all that, there are Nichols' inconsistent, inaccurate statements to the FBI. "In my eyes, I did not do anything wrong," he told the agents. "But I can see how lawyers...
Gumbel seems like a fun boss (Hey, there's a plastic humanoid M&M behind his desk).

Others, like Dr. Harvey Himel, a plastic surgeon on the team, are attracted by a long-term association with the patients. "It's the real partnership with the the patients that I treasure," Himel says. "I always feel that I'm connecting with them." That connection can last for years. Himel follows his patients from their most desperate moments immediately after a burn, through skin grafts, follow-up visits and sometimes through reconstructive and cosmetic surgery...
