Robert's Ramblings

Oh how our gadgets have changed.

Forty years ago this Australian made television would have taken pride of place in someones home or office.

Being a small portable device it most likely would have been a personal source of escape to game shows, movies, sitcoms or sports sports.

Now the last and only show this television will ever play are the passers-by as their deep image image reflects in the glassy screen.

I was oh so close to using the word 'mirror' in my title.

These two cruisers are really quite different but the combination of apparent and real reflections gives the impression of sameness well before the differences become apparent.

In the same way real twins often seem identical until you take the time to notice.
