You can’t see them, the reflection would melt a sun spot resulting in solar flare activity on earth. Just saying. AW
Haha he could get a gig on the next Trivago advertisement possibly.
(You’d have to have seen it)
Good stuff. And only jokes Supa they looked good. Seriously thinking about it myself.

I wanna see @AW's pappadam beige's..
A bit of Wallace reflection.
In Tangkoko NE Sulawesi, stumbled across this, I was stoked, my life hero.
Further on into the forest we lucked upon a great troop of Macaques.
Two relatives from different eras.
Indonesian people have been well taught over decades about Wallace and the Line named after him. AW
Well well, I bet that made your day AW!

Seeds. Hi mate, certainly did, paused at the large bust and read all that was attributed to him, such an achievement for a young man at his time and place.
I can honestly say I was quite moved by it all.
What a contribution to humanity, devising the theory of natural selection through transmutational change, he was way ahead of the rest of them.AW

I’m genuinely happy for you AW.
And I thank you for opening up my eyes to the real story of evolution, with all its players.

Seeds. Good stuff mate. There were more players than just Wallace and Darwin, but those two were closer to the achievement than the rest of them.
You know what, often when I talk to people, generally younger folk about evolution, the first name they mention is Darwin, I understand the reason why. Darwin was also thinking along the same lines but couldn’t quite nail it because besides the Voyage of The Beagle he undertook, he rarely went in the field for prolonged periods of time. He was from a wealthy family of achievers , did great theoretical work at home , bit of a procrastinator and took nearly 30 years to come up with his own theory, alas, he was a great friend of Wallace , they both confided in each other.
Most of society attributes the theory to Darwin, I simply say to them that the region i just visited in NE and East Indonesia is called Wallacea for a very good reason.
If Darwin was the man, the region today would be called Darwinia and it simply is not. AW

Blackers. Hi mate. You are the Nostradamus of the AFl, you predicted it.
I take my hat off to you, a few things to tidy up and a few players back in will lead us to a cakewalk like Good Old Collingwood. Just scoffed down a kilo of prawns in a sweet and sour sauce, Padang style. I’m cooked. Catch ya. AW
cos, y'know.. we're curious.
PB & J, or 'the original odd couple'.
either way, stay social boys.
