And now there is no chance of ANY of us doing anything but discussing this for the next 300 responses.

How long until someone posts a copy with the text saturated and darkened in ps? I bet 2 hrs.

I am working on it now, I started by looking at the meta data for the photo. I don't think the text will tell us anything except a clue to what book this was scanned out of.


Anyone know what kind of fish this is?
