Why are so many of the photogs staring at the straw in front of them?

Not mine, my foot is a little more than an inch shorter than my forearm, unless you're talking about the inner crook of the elbow instead of the outer point--in which case my foot is about an inch longer.

And all about the number Phi! Something like 1.61.... etc. It's called the Golden Ratio as everything in nature is based on it. I can't remember where from where to measure to on your body, but every time you divide the larger number by the smaller number you get the Golden Ratio... Can any one help me out here?

Or am I just getting confuddled... again.

Wikipedia on the Golden Ratio

Not sure how it applies to the foot/forearm example, though -if they're supposed to be about the same size, their ratio would be nearer to 1, surely?
