}And BTW, my physad is better than your sammie :)

'Cause he had nothing better to do while in hospital. After all
lying on your back for a couple of weeks is downright boring. So he
realised that his aura was severly disrupted by the wound, and tried
using the tattered remains, to pull himself together <grin>

A half-hearted answer... but seriously, you loose, you train to
get something else. Thats like saying okay, you've lost your right
arm. You automatically gain a specilzation in left handed combat, and
at the same time due to the wound your intellegence goes up by one.
A little pointless
