I seem to recall it also had something to do with insects seeing only in deep-red/near IR, and in those wavelengths green looks black. And so this is why there's no green flowers, because the flowers need to be a different color than the rest of the plant to attract insects. To pollenate, you see.

Concurrent evolutionary biology or something, IIRC.

I could be totally wrong though.

so Negrophiles, answer me this:
what kinda computers do people use in places like Russia, India, China, ect? By this I mean,,,, do they have the usual desktop PC brand-names of shit or are they using some super-cheap domestically made thing? are they still rocking Win98 on a copy of a PC jr?

i know that there's still a version of the Atari 2600 sold in India, for example (the whole original-console, not the whole thing with all the old games built into a single joystick controller). There's people there who only make like fifty cents a day. a cheap-ass laptop is only lilke $300 now, but lots of people couldn't even afford that

So like,,, a USA or Eurofag can get online and order any name-brand computer part pretty much. what do the folks inna po' countries do?

one material used to stop vibration is called Sorbothane--easy to get in the USA but I mained a bit to someone in the UK, because he said there was no distributor at all

also you might be able to do something with active noise-reduction,,,, if the wall doesn't need to be passive

unless you live in China or India, engineering degree programs should include a course on how to cook squirrels

(can you say 'job offshoring'?... if u cant now, you will learn eventually....... )
