life imitates incredibles

if you recall in the movie "the incredibles", the malevolent "syndrome" systematically kills off all the superheroes. his motive is envy. now doctors in india are doing the same thing. eight-limbed octopus-girl, lakshmi tatma, has just had 6 of her tentacles lopped off by curmudgeonly doctors; no doubt jealous of the girl's ability to play beethoven's 5th symphony all by herself. now we'll never know if tatma would have gone on to squirt ink or spin webs, catching supervillains in her spare time. the forces of crime-fighting have been dealt a serious blow. boo.
