Da Vinci code

why would you watch a video based on good fiction, bad logic.

I'll write a book on changing your perspective on rods, cones, and color structure as defined by centuries of manipulation of the perceived. What if there weren't just three primary colors, but rather five and that your whole understanding of color in all things was based on a simplistic view, much like a lie? Wow! That sounds great ... does it survive reality ...

'my sources say no'

Sorry, even magic eight ball (10 sided die within blue gel, inside an 8-ball shape finds it to be smelly like septic.
If your attempt is to claim -- based on data, logical, inspired ... well, so is polytheism, to which I do not subscribe. It's as reasonable as souls bound to inanimate objects like stones, rocks, living trees, irises

not to cheer

about Yahoo -- despite its name, I'll not "yahoo", for its limitations I see outweigh its 'virtues', like the pics being unavailable for full size rendering, but for print, acquired through Target. I think that stinks. My cousin, who uses Yahoo, made available to us the pics from a reunion, but I couldn't view them as large photos -- each being 30-50 K size only. The pics I loaded were 700K - 2 Meg, free to download, but slow to do pic by pic.

Yahoo needs some fixing with true users

Why I like my camera

1300 photos in 4 days ... not a single print, yet the pics -- for what they're worth, are mine. It can, at max, take 2.5 frames per second -- fast, movie-like speed.
I'm now excited about buying more crap for it -- flash, other lenses; you'd think that the camera was a lover -- to please and to placate it's wants for tokens of love. I'd like to completely replace my old camera, for which I had a nice 90-300 zoom. That was necessary for timid animals like deer, well weary of humans.

Melting

schools are typically not air conditioned. Where I was today was, but it wasn't running in the morning and barely moved air. I expect the kids to be puking in the afternoon tomorrow if the AC is again, not used correctly.
What's odd is that the summer school begins days after the school year ends, and at 7:15 in the morning. There will be some cranky kids, to be sure. What were the developers thinking? I'll guess that they weren't thinking, or expereinced whatsoever.
