Hmmm... now I don't remember the beginning of the thread, but I think that
the manitou was already attached to the character, then the character got
the rope necktie.  Otherwise I totally agree, if the character had been
prime harrowed material before the hangin', having his head popped off
definitly ruins the goods.  The manitou could watch for a bit to see if the
undertaker does in fact replace the head properly, and _then_ take up
residence.........
