Maybe they'll believe John Le Carré

“I know about interrogation,” he said, alluding to his days as a British spy in the 1950s. “I’ve done interrogations, and I can tell you this: By extracting information under torture, you make a fool of yourself. You obtain information that isn’t true. You receive names of people who are supposedly guilty and aren’t. You land yourself with a wild goose chase, and you miss what is being handed to you on a plate, and that is the possibility of bonding with someone and engaging with them and talking to them reasonably.”

On that island, regular lenses capture the sort of things I've come to associate with your combination of macro lens and eye. (I'm still trying to figure out what the thing that looks like a snail inside a mechanical jaw is. Long live RSS.)

Yeah, I saw that post. I want to visit. The plants remind me of things made with the oddball plant generator I linked to a while back.
