[Admin - PM] hey all, were looking for an emergency host for this week - start today or tomorrow and go until Saturday. If you’ve always wanted to host, now’s your chance to dive off that cliff! I promise the water is deep.

This 1751 microscope, designed by French astronomer Michel Ferdinand d’Albert d’Ailly, still works. Inside the storage case are tweezers, lenses, and slides of petals, hair, fly wings, and fleas http://bit.ly/2Ab97Zc
