	Amputee Stopped for 6 Week Periods
		For the recent amputee, he/she learns that excess sweat is an inherent result of the amputation because the sweat of the lost limb now accumulates at the stump.
		Most important to the amputee is the fact that the stump is subject to irritation if the skin is wet when the prosthesis is worn.
		For the amputee, the continuous friction between the sweating stump and the socket of the prosthesis often leads to blistering and abrasion.

		While at the American Film Institute, David Lynch tested two different types of videotape stock by shooting this strange little piece, featuring Catherine Coulson as an amputee writing a letter, and Lynch as a nurse attending her.
		Coulson's voiceover details various domestic issues, and she remains oblivious to the fact that she might be bleeding to death while the nurse rushes around frantically, eventually, it seems, abandoning her.
		Regardless of whether or not this is true, The Amputee is better viewed as an example of Lynch's warped sense of humour than his skill as a filmmaker, and of what sort of ideas he might come up with for something as simple as a stock test.
