    OMG, I think that is the longest single sentence I've ever typed.

    If you'll notice the two screws in the right hand of Ajaan's image, they're two of four that are holding a sheet of plexiglass over the top of the set. Those coins aren't moving!image

    Ajaan, if you were editing a digital coin image on your computer and moved the hue indicator bar slightly into the green, the result would be what the scan shows.
