Ok, here's a slightly odd one. Prompted by the recent FPP in the blue about the ancient photography lab, I got to thinking about the lighting in the basement "wet lab". This led to the question: if film doesn't react to red light, why are we able to take pictures of red things?

I may have run a red light, and there may have been a camera posted by said light. This was in Burlington, Massachusetts. Can anyone please help me figure out if this was really a red light camera, and, if so, what's going to happen next? [more inside]

Phantomplate.com sell The PhotoBlocker Spray, The PhotoShield Cover, and The Reflector Cover. Has anyone purchased any of these products, used them, run a red light, been flashed by a camera, and not received a ticket? [more inside]

Another lost book for you: a book that tells you how many minutes of your life you spend on average waiting for the elevator to come, waiting in front of red traffic lights, sitting on the toilet, etc. Probably depressing to read, but I'd still like to find it.
