    I went out back and looked at my bat house today. By the amount of guano on the ground I have a lot of tenants. Took awhile but they finally trusted it. YEAH

    Between 1826 and 1827? Talk about a long exposure.

    My great granddaughter can hit a piano key faster. It almost sounds like my tinnitus.

    What about that cave picture of my ex-mother-in-law’s first mammoth kill?

    That photograph isn’t the oldest surviving photograph; it’s the first photograph. The University of Texas in Austin owns it, and to see it you have to ask the people at the Humanities Research Center, where it’s kept. I’ve seen it many times over a forty year period.

    They aren’t “designed”, they evolved those claws.

    Did he used just one finger to hit the piano key? More than one would be faster

    I find it interesting that they used the word “design” since that implies a designer.

    And the speed was so slow on that that first photographic emulsion that it took EIGHT HOURS to make the exposure.
