Am I the only one on Arrowheadology that reads a couple of mean spirited barbs in this post?

I didn't see any. I always mess with George on posts like this

My post wasn't meant to be mean spirited in any way shape or form...

***EDIT***

Ohhh, I see what you are talking about manoman

There is a alot of silliness going about about artifact vs. geofact and this can very often be verified scientifically by avocational archaeologists. There are some great lighted microscopes that connect to your USB port and let you take pics from 20x to 500x. Then you just post the use wear photos with the artifact or make a determination there no human agency on the piece whatsoever and discard it (keep it out of archaeology).
Enh, it builds character. I know some of my posts come back to haunt me. Live and learn.

Good fun and talented too!
It's the eyes! Some great photos on these forums. I have been trying different settings and light sources, am still not happy with the results. I have even used the portrait setting with the blink detection on. Still not as expressive as Georges.
