    So, if I'm reading this correctly, you have to stand behind a mirror that looks flat even though it's not? Doesn't seem all the useful if there's a huge mirror lying around. . .

    @admoseremic: you left out the part about light deflecting conductive material (in this case, silicon).

    @Adrian Covert:


    What if the mirror is on top and sides of a building. Invisible from space or planes with bombs.

    @RyaninCalgary: That's easy to spot. Just search for the ground that looks anything like the sky.

    Oh, the Romulans won't be happy to hear about this. Not happy at all.

    The Apple store in NYC is in front of the Statue of Liberty? For shame. This isn't even an Apple v. PC thing either. It's just a shame that your average Joe Schmo would much rather document their trip to the Apple store than to the Statue of Liberty.


    I'll just go ahead and start by flaming myself:


    "Well everybody has seen the Statue of Liberty you know. It's kinda been there a long time and isn't going anywhere. The Apple store is new and interesting and actually a pretty neat feat of engineering."


    Now I shall respond:


    So.

    @fsusmithc2: The Statue of Liberty has no big pricey toy store behind it, and I'll bet there aren't as many hot dog carts out there.

    It's funny that you're posting this now, because my professor is one of the people involved in this study, and he was talking about it in lecture yesterday (finals coming up, no new course material). Among the bizarre things they discovered: Americans and French always seem to take pictures of the Eiffel Tower from opposite sides, and people love taking pictures of emos in Austin, TX. And yeah, there was the Apple Store thing. Who knew?

    Incidentally, it's also a probably distribution of places for Skynet to launch its first nuclear attacks.

    Well of course people like taking pictures of landmarks. Personally I think it's boring. Where's the bodegas? Where's the liquor stores? #1 Kitchen? The flaming trash can on blahblahblah Street?
