Just as an adage....
I'm trying to get the people at work interested by showing them some of the pics coming from Mars/Curiosity.
Some were like WOW! tahts fantastic, some were like yeah wat eva.
Then I tried to explain my little personal discovery about the dots/dashes in the wheels.......
Their comments were all positive!!!!!!!
They called me a geek, nerd, alien, nutter, strange......and also comments like " how the what the?????"
One comment was " I would not have figured that out in a million years" , to which I responded: " yes you would.... using your futuristic scanning device, it would have recognized the morse code and found that it was from your fore-fathers..."
