What with the low life form that decided to break my mirror, and with some all-around fixes, I had to get my BMW twice to a garage in the last 10 days.

For some strange reason, I got a message on Facebook for an event I am not interested in, hosted by a group I am not interested in. (Brief irrelevant parenthesis: where is the privacy on Facebook?!?

Throughout the evolutionary history of our eyes, nature kind-of screwed up at some point. Instead of having the optical nerves that lead to the brain processing centre come from behind the photoreceptor cells in the retina (like for instance in cephalopods), they start from the inside of the retina meaning that there are no photoreceptors at that point. This is the case for all vertebrates and creates a blind spot in our field of vision. Let’s find out where that is!
