We've been studying lenses and talking a bit about the eye in Physics, and I was telling my students the story of George Stratton. He did an experiment where he wore a pair of inversion goggles (they make everything appear upside down) for several days. After a time, his eyes/brain adjusted to the abnormality, and he could function (somewhat) normally. And THEN, when he finally removed the goggles, it took some time for his naked eyes to go back to seeing normally. Here's one of my students wearing the goggles...it's quite an unusual experience. You can make your own with a simple triangular prism...

Hey Chad,
I'll be praying about the visas. And I'll pass on the "upside down" glasses...I have a hard enough time seeing everything rightside up!! Love, Aunt Gail
I'm with your Aunt Gail.... It's hard enough seeing things right-side-up :) Who knows, maybe seeing things up-side-down would help.
Praying regarding the visas.
Tami
