	I don't have my sources with me, but I seem to remember
something about if the time lord's body becomes seriously damaged
or if certain parts become damaged then he can't regenerate. This
would seem to go along with what Davison's <sp> doctor said
when he regenerated, "I might regenerate, I don't know. This time it's
different." He didn't seem sure that he would regenerate. If any
of this is wrong, sorry. I'm going totally by memory. Any extra
information would be helpful, but no flames please

Would you mind not standing on my chest, my hat's on fire

If you don't stop burning my scarf, you'll have to kill me.
