Not being able to see his face, I wondered at the remarkable effect his gaze was having on people around him, as they ceased talking almost immediately when he looked their way. As he tured toward me I saw the reason why - his irises appeared unusually large and were mirror-reflective. I had an opportunity to speak to him a little later on, and discovered that his father was an opthamologist in California who had done work in the motion-picture industry, ergo the lenses he was wearing. He confided to me that they were somewhat uncomfortable and cut down on peripheral vision, but the shock value made it all worthwhile. -Michael DISCLAIMER: "Don't depend on my opinions, don't console yourself with my so-called wisdom." -Anna Morello
