<P class=MsoNormal>I saw this at my son’s favorite zoo yesterday. It really got me to thinking about such things as my having walked over this access cover about 20 to 30 times before I noticed the epic fail. Millions likely walked over it and never noticed. So how is it that so much happens all around us that we never see? Or on the other hand, what kind of silly goofball actually reads manhole covers? Why is it that you and I see a pile of ants and we are all aahhh jaysus, where’s my can of raid; yet Charles Darwin sees the same thing and writes the stunning seventh chapter of Origin of Species?</P>
