If your eyes follow the movement of the rotating pink dot, you will only see one color, pink. If you stare at the black + in the center, the moving dot turns to green. Now, concentrate on the black + in the center of the picture. After a short period of time, all the pink dots will slowly disappear, and you will only see a green dot rotating if you're lucky! It's amazing how our brain works. There really is no green dot, and the pink ones really don't disappear. This should be proof enough, we don't always see what we think we see.

Don! That's exactly who I would've picked as a viable substitute! She IS still a babe- no doubt. But even we are teetering on the brink of extinction- ask how many people know (or have even seen) an 8-track tape? Yikes!

Sean, I can go one better than you, I can remember having a Craig Pioneer 4-track tape player in my first car.

By the way, talking about cold days, Thursday evening we had a high temp of 85, Friday we had a low of 27 and right now it is 25 deg.

TB:

Yikes! That's a generation BEFORE the 8-track. But I do remember the name "Craig"- had one or two of those cassette units as a 'youngin'!

HEY...BTW...Admin is looking into that issue with being able to add descriptions during a photo upload. But right now, you can always go back into your pic and add one. Thanks for all you help in fixing the pics in the threads!

And right now....39.4* outside with snow on the mtns behind us- gorgeous!

Sean
