    Strange that T.S. Eliot used his initials rather than writing out his names.

    I’ve searched and searched but nowhere could I find what the ‘T’ and ‘S’ stood for.

    After several hours, my wife could see my utter frustration.

    She muttered, “It’s probably Top Secret.”

    The green makeup was to give an appearance of having a nice tan before the advent of color TV.

    It’s a little bit like metamerism with the hummingbird.

    Changing color depending on angle is called “iridescence”.
