It's a shame it only works from one viewing spot.

with a little more technology, the 'one viewing angle' problem can be solved. http://science.howstuffworks.com/invisible-tank.htm/printable

Artist: "I'd like to announce a public viewing of my latest work... Please come one at a time and be sure to stand on the red tape X, with head tilted 16 degrees and turned slightly to the left."

Shawnee123 • May 6, 2009 2:07 pm
The Lindsay between when she was fresh and cute, and now that she's skanky and used-looking.

He meant "greenscreen", for the ubiquitous background hung behind both weather reporters and gazillion dollar Hollywood stars so that digital imagery can be inserted into the scene.

He?

So it must be she... or should it be it?

So the mystery deeps . Just curiouser and curiouser isn't it all

Perhaps it this is not about hes or shes we are the cellar no.
Then it should be the homogeneous "we" or are we not there yet?

HUH?

Queen of the Ryche • May 7, 2009 5:22 pm
Ok. So at least I know Monny is a SHE, and I DO know what a greEnscreen is. I even know where to and not to put apostrophes.

My Gren Wiki link was a lame attempt at humor.
I suck. I shall never try to be funny again. Carry on.
