That was a bit quick to tell - people who like Moroccan Woodbines could have been pondering this for several weeks !

I was thinking some sort of wind tunnel test. Any link to the explanation of the pic ?

It's an electronically created, digitized attempt to interpret and then to manage imagine chaos in a fluid system.

I thought the same thing for a moment Lyn. The chances of me being in CR4 or even opening the post are non existent. Fredski was the trigger. Goes to prove that the cat must be alive and well.

Here is what it reminded me of:

"Breeding Sea Horses"

Not sure what you know about the biology of these critters. Surrounded by chaos and they keep doing what they do best.

Thanks for the exposure, leg up, Ky.
