Re: The Bargain Hunters Thread

Not particularly Bargain Hunters, but my local auction house Gildings of Market Harborough are auctioning an extensive watch and clock collection next week.

Re: How much information do you want...

There was an experiment done where pictures of the offending furries were stuck onto x-rays to see whether radiologists (consultants or trainees) spotted them. Trainees were better than consultants because they didn’t have any ingrained pattern recognition yet and had to look around the whole scree...
