Skin is not limited to the extremities.Lupin wrote: The skin is defined as as a 'tissue forming the external covering'. (emphasis mine) Since it's an external covering it's, by definition, on the ouside, and therefore not inside the body.

No, the Eustachian tube is behind the eardrum, in the middle ear.

Lucky for me I have an extremly good immune system, I was on a winning streak of not catching anything for about 4 years and then last year I got it pretty bad after going to the beach. But that was the last time I got sick, I havent been sick all this year. Must be the rice and beans. ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/closedgrin.gif)
