Hey, this time Mary Roach is about an encyclopedic-worthy writer, not an American Idol waif, so let's keep this one, eh? ~ Reaverdrop 04:51, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Should it be renamed Mary Roach (author) then, with this as a disambiguation? CrazyC83 06:21, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

No, because the Mary Roach of American Idol fame(?) isn't noteworthy enough to warrant an article. Let's keep this the way it is. -Vontafeijos 00:48, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Why does Roach's first book (Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers) redirect here? I propose excising the information about that book from this article and putting it on its own page. Does anyone else agree?JianLi 23:21, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
