Wait. Let me get this straight.
A guy from Scotland goes 5490 miles to Tokyo and takes a picture of a
girl taking a picture. She turns out to be from England, 413 miles away
from him.
Impressive, but not all that weird.
UNTIL!
He posts the picture he took on a Website (in Canada, irrelevantly) and
within 6 weeks the girl in the photo finds it?
That is truly amazing. I am deeply impressed. Any one care to calculate
the odds?

This is mostly for Spring, who's such a big fan of Flickr.
Another link, again mostly for Spring but others may find this of
interest as well, Frontline has several episodes available for
viewing online (link via Jason

You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
