correlation with left or right handedness? me, clockwise, left handed My wife (left handed) saw it counter-clockwise initially. She claims that if you peek through your fingers so that you see only the very bottom of the picture you can then easily "decide" on the direction of rotation that then persists when you look at the whole picture. Unfortunately looking at things like this tends to give me a migraine, so after my initial experiment I haven't tried again. Trying to think about it logically, the only clues to direction of rotation in real life would be the apparent size of the leg when close vs. far, which is complex here because it is overlaid on the foreshortening caused by the rotation; which side of the standing leg gets obscured first (hard here because it is all black); and lighting and shadow effects (again obscured by the black silhouette). So really there is no objective basis here for assuming one direction vs. the other. In a similarly OT (but related) vein, the new London Olympics logo on its first TV appearance provoked epilepsy in several people. I personally think it's headache provoking and nasty. Peter
