You don't know what you look like, since you're used to looking at yourself "backwards" relative to how other people see you. I like to think I'm much better looking from other peoples' perspectives. :)

I understood the t shirt bit ,Shellshocker.But i got a bit lost with Maya's webcam experiment:laugh:

Um, and you know what you look like from photographs ,surely?

Although even then you are still seeing yourself differently from how the rest of the world sees you,apparantly.Although they reckon in the minute you die one of the things you realise is how the rest of the human race has been seeing you all your life.Or something

First, yeah, you do know what you look like from photographs, which is why most people are never happy with their photos. They're used to seeing themselves in a mirror.

OK, here is the rest of what I had before, which I had gotten rid of cos I figured it was a bit too wordy. Anyway, by popoular demand: One way to start to get a handle on this is to take a piece of paper with your name written on it. Look at it in the mirror and it will be reversed. Now turn it vertically. You will find that the lettering is reversed, but it is not upside down. That should start to give you a clue as to what is going on. Now take your finger and point to the first letter in your name, both on the paper and on the mirror. Notice that there is a one-to-one correspondence -- if the letter appears on the left hand side of the paper from your perspective, it appears on the left hand side of the mirror.

Take a piece of thin, translucent paper and write your name on it. Stand in front of a mirror and hold the paper up so that you can read the paper normally. Now look in the mirror. You are seeing the back of the translucent sheet in the mirror, and the word is not reversed -- it looks completely normal. Now turn the paper over and look at it in the mirror. It is reversed, but so are the letters on the back of the translucent sheet. Note that you turned the paper over -- you reversed it!

Now get out your webcam and get to it! :)

Kind of on the mirror topic.....

Why is it that when some women look in the mirror they see a reflection of themselves from 10-15 years ago??? Is it an eyesight thing??? :confused2:

Mutton dressed as lamb scares the heck out of me,

So much so that I have asked some of my most brutally honest friends to do a mutton check on whatever I'm wearing when I go out; In case I have scummed to the freaky place where I can no longer tell.

Can any one explain this to me?

If you do, just make sure you get the concave kind, not the convex, and you shall always be happy when looking in the mirror. :)

Because the monsters hiding under your bed secretly replace your gum with their boogers, which happen to look and taste exactly like used chewing gum. :crazy:

The short answer is that in most atoms, there are an equal number of electrons spinning in opposite directions, thus their charges cancel out. In magnetic materials, hoewever, there are more electrons spinning in one direction than in the other, which results in a net magnetic field in one direction or another. The more atoms you have with an electron spinning imbalance, the more stongly magnetic the material is.
