haven't seen these lenses either:

Hella/Spanninga HL2000/Supra-XTL

Supernova Tearofflux-2

Smart thinking, Sepp, but it's a bit difficult for James even to see
these lamps without ordering them from 12000 miles away at
substantial postage and import costs. He lives in Australia.

Yep. Pretty much best I can do is look with a google image search.

Looks like a collimated lens with reflector, much like the symmetric
lenses in my home brew.

I could be wrong of course. It's difficult to see from enough angles to
make a good assessment.

Postage from Foshan to his place in Southern China is domestic, isn't it? eg

If only. It cost me $30 to get a pair of rims from China - still
cheaper than buying locally.

LOL. Only what I, and others, have been saying for years.

Did google identify what language it had detected to translate from?

The thing is, it's all an act. A few months ago he posted something
lucid. It was actually a relief to know that he is not suffering from
some problem that causes those strange messages. But if he thinks that
it's amusing to do that, he's wrong.

Which is how we appreciate Andre. He does for personality disorders what
J.M.W. Turner did for sunsets.

Crap. You should stick to welding, Franki-boy, or something that you know about, though I'm hard put to think of an example. I'm a distinguished novelist, one of the world's leading teachers of creative writing, and a lifelong critic of the performing arts often condemned by now-obsolete establishments as a guerrilla, and I have no hesitation in saying that what Daniels does to a noble language is not art but atrocity.

Why, thank you, Radey. As a psychologist by training who has recently returned to an old love, painting, I truly appreciate that encomium.

I fear I have been misunderstood. Turner's paintings do not *describe*
sunsets, they very nearly *are* sunsets. Likewise your positings.
