A few New York Skeptics will be in Boston Mass October 2 and 3 and would like to get together with some other folk. Sid Rodriguez hosted us when we were in London, and I would like to do a payback, but I can't locate him. Is he in Boston or London. Also, Mercurtio, Paul Longreeklastname, anyone else. And Rebecca, whose website keeps me off.

Thanks Scott, and the next time you are on LI, we will reciprocate your hospitality. And here's a link to the illusion I suggested to the docent at the Science Museum. http://www.michaelbach.de/ot/col_lilacChaser/index.html

You're welcome Jeff. I was my pleasure showing you some of Boston; I just wish the weather had been better.

I'd seen that illusion before. It is very strange how the dots "vanish" from your perception, leaving only the illusionary negative "dot".
