Ted,

Speaking of China and farms, there is a famous story from ancient China 
about a murder commited by a peasant. The victim was killed with a 
sickle. The investigating official examined the sickles owned by all of 
the peasants who were suspects, but they all seemed clean. He had all of 
the sickles laid out in the hot sun, and then watched them. After a 
while, flies seemed attracted to one of them. Even though the blood had 
been cleaned off, the flies were still attracted to the invisible traces 
that remained.

So, if you ever get these cameras confused with any others, maybe you can 
sort them out buy putting them in the sun to see which ones the flies 
like.

This would also make a good story next time you take photos in an 
operating room. Wait until after everyone is scrubbed down and they're 
cutting open the patient, then you can tell them about the camera you're 
using.
