Wikipedia’s post on “all about fluorine’– this element is so unique, and with fluorine man has made some wacko new compounds. There is only a small post on perfluorinated blood substitutes down at the bottom. I was not amused by the fact that there were “fluorine martyrs” to fluorine chemistry experiments gone bad. And in the old days of science, those guys really took their work seriously, without understanding (or knowing) consequences, and their lives in their hands. I wonder if technology outpaces common sense. Of course I don’t wonder. ha ha… it does, all the time, every day.

Inner ear stereo-pair
Many years ago I was interested in reconstructing 3D images from sections of inner ear. I still have many of those slides and images. At that time my son Daniel Miller was into computer graphics. He took my highlighted 2D sections (as shown in the bottom image) and created this stereo pair. Cochelar duct yellow, ampulla of the semicircular canals white.
It looks like we submitted a cover illustration as well. I cant even remember if it was successful.
