Wow. I wondered if the researchers were spinning the bowl on purpose, or if this was one of those neat things discoverd on accident.

[pjthompson]

lol. Considering that it took a long time for anyone to notice, I'm thinking accident.

Hee. I think so too. I know it wouldn't have been one of the first things I would have thought to do. :)

Yeah it is!

Makes you wonder how many other cartoon bowls are out there.

That is so CCOL!!!!!

[pjthompson]

Isn't it?

Very cool, and I wonder how many museum directors are going around spinning their bowls right now. :)

I can't help wondering if they cleaned up the image for the video-clip, though? It's just a little too neat, concerning the background.

Just as long as they aren't spinning them on their fingertips like acrobats. :-)

I can't help wondering if they cleaned up the image for the video-clip, though?

I think the article said it was "based on" the original rather than being the original so they may have cleaned it up some.

oh, awesome! (and just another reason to attack them!)

[pjthompson]

Of course. We don't want any more unnatural goat cartoons floating around out there.

'cause we all know sheep go to heaven and goats go to hell.

Proves yet again, I guess, that there's nothing new under the sun.
