[Rockhounds] Re: Right or Left Brained Rockhounds?

[Axel Emmermann]

At first they seemed to rotate randomly and different each time I looked.
Then I noticed that after blinking both eyes rapidly for a second ore two
the top one rotates clockwise and the bottom one CCW. I tried this a few
time and it looks as if this trick works consistently. Not sure that what I
see is really how it is but blinking always is followed by CW respectively
CCW rotation.

Cheers

Axel
