Heliocentrism:

And the Source of the Fundamental Distrust in Ourselves

February 13th, 2026

The ancient alchemists believed that our bodies are a microcosm of forces interacting in, on, and between the Heavens and the Earth. That everything that we experience internally can be observed externally, and vice versa. Therefore, all of the mysteries of life on the Earth are within the capacity of our senses to learn and discover.

If that were all true, how is it that our fundamental understanding of our existence in the grander cosmos is 100% ass-backwards from what we experience? What about living on the Earth leads us to believe that we are on a sphere, rotating hundreds to over a thousand miles per hour, blasting full-throttle around a giant gas fire ball, bigger than anything we could possibly imagine? Do we feel any movement? Does the sun LOOK a hundred times bigger than the Earth? Can we see any curvature to our surface? What about the Earth even looks spherical? What about the mirror images that we see on the surface of water indicates any degree of convexity to it? What about watching the path of the moon and sun informs us that we are moving and not them? What about looking out at a completely undisturbed surface of a secluded lake on a calm evening, without a breath of wind in the air, suggests that the Earth is spinning at hundreds to over a thousand miles per hour, swinging around the sun at over 10,000 miles per hour, barreling through space at over 400,000 miles per hour, and accelerating, and swinging around expanding galaxy in an expanding and accelerating universe? How could that amount of stillness exist amidst layered astronomical amounts rotational velocity? Who would ever conclude any of this, if not told it were so by ever other human that we have ever known and trusted from the time we were able to comprehend our existence at such a level of complexity?

The truth of the matter is that there is nothing about what we can sense in our experience on the Earth that informs us that we live on spherical ground, and that the Earth is moving instead of all the things that we see moving in the sky. Rather, we observe the sun and the moon move across the sky each day and night and we notice how the constellations rotate 360° around the North Star, the middle of the sky, throughout the course of the year, while we seemingly remain in the same position, on a flat surface, relative to their movements, and feel no movement of our own.

How could that be if it's completely wrong? If God made our body, then why would it be so fundamentally defective to the extent that we can't even accurately sense the world that He made for us. Or, if you believe in evolution and that the creation of this whole universe is random (I don't, but if you do), then how could after 7 billion years, or whatever, of carefully crafting the perfectly adapted human specimen through trial and error, produce a sensory system that informs us that we are living on a surface, on which we evolved for billions of years, while honing the perfect instincts and intellect to reach the top of the food chain, and do things that no other species has ever accomplished, that has the exact OPPOSITE properties of what all of our bodily senses are telling us? It doesn't make any sense! There is no way that our bodies could be that defective. What the hell is going on?

There are two possible explanations. The first is that we're stupid. Our bodies are stupid, our senses are stupid, and we must rely the technological sophistication of modern science to explain to us where we are, what we are, and how this whole place works. The second explanation is that our senses are correct, and that the Earth actually is flat and motionless, the sun, moon, and the planets move around us within our own atmosphere, and that this whole idea of a solar system and universe comprised of celestial bodies of astronomical proportions to, and distances from, a rotating and spherical Earth, is a giant crock of shit.

Now, while I want to trust my senses, I am not one to entertain self-delusion either. I don't want to not believe in a solar system if there actually is one. Rather, I'd prefer to put my senses to the test, and hone them, or enhance them somehow, so that they can accurately convey to me the nature of my world. So, I got a high powered optical zoom camera and did some basic math in order to investigate more thoroughly whether or not my senses are inadequate or deceiving me. And, as far as I can tell, they aren't.

The photo image for this blog page was taken by me, no more than 6 inches (probably less) above the surface of the San Francisco Bay, at the Dumbarton Bridge. According to NASA, the radius of the Earth is approximately 3959 miles. Based on spherical geometry, which are pretty simple calculations, which any pre-algebra student should be able to do, though few can do, nor can many adults (probably for this reason), there are a few problems with this photo, as magnified below:

To sum it up, both bridge decks (where the cars drive) should be sunk below the horizon, i.e. behind the curve of the Earth. The deck of the Bay Bridge, in particular, should be over 170 ft hidden BELOW the horizon. However, it's well above it; and well above the San Mateo bridge, which should also be hidden below the horizon, albeit just so. Furthermore, the horizon, itself, is clearly behind the San Mateo bridge, which is nowhere close to the expected 0.87 miles away from where I took the photo, based on my viewing height. Rather, the position of the objects, based on perspective analysis, suggests a completely flat surface.

Now, I understand that light does not travel in a straight line, i.e. that there is such a thing as the phenomenon of refraction. However, this is just way off from what is expected. Furthermore, it even beats every one of those silly-ass refraction calculators on the internet that claim to debunk flat-earth photos, which supposedly account for light refraction based on some arbitrary coefficient, which they all seem to just make up, because there is no consistency in the value used in the adjustment for any of them, i.e. the magnitude with which refraction supposedly raises the objects in the image above (or below) the horizon, nor is there a calculation, formula, or any rationale disclosed in regards to how all of these different coefficients were derived. Even so, even if the features of this photo were all an illusion due to refraction, then that would mean that either I captured the image of the most perfectly refracted event in the history of the globe, or that the properties of light, water, and the precise curvature of the Earth routinely combine to form the optical illusion of perfect flatness. Somehow, I doubt that.

Regardless of how flat the Earth looks in this photo, and the evident scientific discord with regards to the physics of refraction, I'm still not inclined to base my assessment of the shape of the Earth on just one photo. So, I did this for a year. I took about a few hundred photos on about a hundred different days, with about a hundred different atmospheric conditions, and never, not once, did I capture a configuration of the mountains, bridges, buildings, and even airplanes landing at airports, that was even close to being consistent with what I would expect based on spherical geometry and perspective analysis. Furthermore, the heights of these objects relative to the horizon, and each other, looked exactly the same every day, aside from occasional distortions in a narrow band at the horizon, where there was an obvious mirror imaging effect, which produced images of floating cars and planes landing that disappear into thin air, which otherwise did not affect the variation in the heights of the objects outside of that band. So, if varied atmospheric conditions caused significant deviations in the perceived heights of objects relative to the horizon via some moisture/air content sensitive refraction variable, then I would have seen it. But, I didn't. Not once.

Refraction hysteria and defying the rigid precepts of spherical geometry aside, there are other problems that I have with this solar system nonsense. In fact, if it were just the curvature crap, then I might actually dismiss it all as being an optical illusion. However, other observations do not make sense either, and even within the same realm of optical physics. For example, below is a comparison of photos that I took of the moon and a mountain in the Bay Area called Mt. Saint Helena. The moon is over 230,000 miles away, allegedly, and Mt Saint Helena is a mere 85 miles away. Note the difference in the definition on the two rocky surfaces, which are both visible, allegedly, due to sunlight bouncing off of them and traveling to the lense of my camera.

Disregard the geometric fact that, based on my eye height and distance away from Mt. Saint Helena, NO part of that mountain should be visible above the horizon, let alone looming over the Oakland skyline, and about as tall as the 100 ft tall air traffic control tower at OAK airport (10 miles away). All that aside, why is the image of the rock that is 2,700 times further away from the other rock the image that is more defined? In fact, the moon seems perfectly defined, while on Mt Saint Helena I cannot make out a single detail. How does that make any sense?

Now, I understand that the atmosphere is more dense closer to the surface of the Earth. But, there is still about 6,200 miles of atmosphere between me and the moon, allegedly. That's kind of a lot. Plus, another 220,000+ miles of space, with debris and crap floating around. And although the first 18 miles or so of the atmosphere contains the majority of the optically interfering gas particles, the moon looks more defined than things even around 18 miles away. For example, it's more defined than the Bay Bridge from the first photo, which I can barely make out, and that's less than 25 miles away. Furthermore, and maybe most importantly, when I look up at the moon, it just doesn't look like it's that far away. Rather, it looks like it could be within our atmosphere, because it probably is and the atmosphere is probably not a sphere.

Once the spell of the solar system is broken, then a whole host of other things start to not make sense either, or seem far too coincidental. For example, how is it that the moon and the sun, which are vastly different sizes, supposedly, just so happen to be the same size in the sky such that we have perfect solar eclipses? That's a little not too random for a random configuration of randomly sized giant spheres from a random explosion billions of miles away. And how is it that we have only seen one side of the moon for the entire history of humanity? Can the rotation of the moon be THAT perfectly synchronized with the Earth? Also, how could the law of entropy, which is that any system must degrade over time without the injection of new energy, not apply to two giant perfectly synchronized rotating rocks? On that subject, why has the Earth's rotation not slowed down over the course of billions of years? Furthermore, how is it that, in an expanding and accelerating universe, the constellations have not changed in the entire history of humanity? If everything were expanding, why don't we see any expansion? And how does the universe rotate perfectly around the North Star? How does a North Star even exist, and has remained the center of sky for the entirety of human existence, in an expanding universe, where everything, including us, is moving hundreds of thousands of miles per hour? Then, there's just obvious stuff like how does gas stay in a pressurized atmosphere that is adjacent to vacuous space with no physical barrier between them? Furthermore, we're going 800 mph here in the Bay Area. How does the air move with us? It's not like the air is attached to the ground. On that subject, how does air travel happen over ground that is rotating beneath it? How can a plane even go to and from geographic locations of different latitudes that have ground speed differentials of hundreds of miles per hour?

None of this makes any sense. At the very least, the average person could not give an intelligent explanation to any of those questions. Yet, we accept the solar system as scientific fact. Furthermore, when I discuss this with people, there is resistance. People truly want to believe that they live in a solar system, even though they cannot justify any reason for believing that they are actually in one, aside from seeing images and videos from NASA, which happens to own the largest movie studio in the world, pieces together their annual spherical Earth photo from balloon satellite images within our own atmosphere, and has full access to computer generated image (CGI) technology. Furthermore, they are run by the same incompetent and corrupt organization that manages social security, the IRS, and our money system. If the federal government can't even balance a budget, then they're not going to manage the finances or operations necessary for traveling millions to billions of miles to other worlds in a valiant effort to map out vast infinite space. That's just my hunch.

And I don't know if people just don't want to believe they have been lied to, or they just really like the idea of giant-ass rock and gas spheres, which are impossible to get to, and even if we could go there, we'd die immediately from lack of heat or way too much heat; but, even if I can fully and intelligently articulate every reason why the solar system does not make sense, is counter to everything that we can observe and experience on the Earth, including the physics thereof, which seem to apply to everything but a solar system, the final rebuttal to all that is: "Okay. So, why would someone even want to make us believe that the Earth is round? What does it even matter what the shape of the Earth is anyway? What would someone have to gain from doing that?" Admittedly, that is a very interesting question. And the answer is probably more offensive than the claim itself that the Earth is flat.

To answer that question, let's assume that the Earth is flat and motionless. This means that every sense in our body is correctly informing us about the true nature of our world, but we wholeheartedly believe that exact opposite of that to be true, to the extent that we are offended when punks like me propose that it's not, and will defend the lie to the ends of our weak comprehension of basic physical science with hostility. What is the problem with that? What would that do to us? How would that affect our lives? Before I really offend some people with the full answers to these questions, which I'm eager to do (but, I'll be patient), I'm going to draw on inspiration from the movie The Truman Show to get a sense of what this could look like.

If you have never seen or heard of this movie, it is about a man who is oblivious to being the main character on a secret reality TV show about his life. The main character, Truman (Jim Carrey), thinks that he is living a normal life on Earth, but is actually confined to an island in a giant, isolated, and controlled TV studio, where all of the cameras can be set up and ready to capture his every movement, and all of the other people in his life are actors in order to keep up the ruse. Since the movie stars Jim Carrey, it's easy to dismiss it as classic 90's light-hearted and fanciful entertainment. However, given its lasting relevance in pop culture, the impact that it has had on me, and how it was inspired by a story written by Phillip K. Dick, whose stories also inspired BladeRunner and The Matrix, which are also about characters awakening to their false reality, the latter of which has a far too coincidental glaring 9/11 prediction in it, I don't take the themes and elements as lightly compared to Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls. So, while talking out of your butt is base humor, albeit very much appreciated by me, it doesn't diminish the deep meanings within The Truman Show, at least not for me.

In order for the whole Truman Show production to work, Truman has to remain in his artificial world by his own choice. If Truman has to be consistently and/or strongly physically restrained to stay in the TV studio against his will in order to prevent him venturing out and discovering the artificiality of his reality, then he would probably get very suspicious, figure it out, and the show's over. Blatant control tactics are not going to work. Rather, they had to rely on mind manipulation. They had to somehow make Truman believe that he had free will, but choose not to exercise it. Truman had to be a prisoner by his own consent. Otherwise, the whole illusion would not work. How? How do you get a grown man to never leave a small island for his entire life?

They have to start to condition Truman when he is young. They manipulate his thoughts as a child in order to control his behavior as an adult. And first place where they start to do it is at school. School is the most powerful tool for controlling a populace. There's no better indoctrination vehicle than mandatory government prescribed curriculum for all humans at the most impressionable ages with 99.9% of parents in agreement that this sort of educational system is good for kids, despite an obvious decline in the intelligence of the general population ever since it's inception. The purpose of school is not to educate, because educated people are a threat to the system. Rather, the school is where we go to have our souls crushed, our imaginations dulled, and our sense of purpose corrupted, in order to prepare us for a life of doing meaningless work as corporate cogs, grasping for rapidly depreciating paper, and now digital, false representations wealth, in order to power an economic engine that sustains our ruling elite (or something to that effect). And a big part of that is telling us lies, unintentionally so by the lemmings of the controlling elite known as "educators" (which I was), marketed as learning, which is exactly what they do to Truman.

As a child, Truman's heart fills him with desire, and his mind gives him curiosity. He dreams about exploring his world. He thusly announces to his class that he wants to be "an explorer like the Great Magellan" when he grows up. How does school respond? School crushes Truman's dream. Instead of inspiring Truman, more so than he already is, to explore his world; rather, school shows him a map of a world, which is not his world, and not only tells him that it's his world, when it's not, but informs him that his fake world has already been discovered, and that there is nothing left to explore or discover, because science has already explored and discoverd it all. How better to take the wonder of the world away from a child than through the subject of Science?

But, what strikes me the hardest from this scene is that first thing in the movie that Truman's overlords do to manipulate his thoughts, which lays the foundation for controlling his behavior as an adult, the first lie that they tell him, other than "this is your real family", is that he lives on a globe. They lead Truman to believe that he is lives on a spherical world that corresponds to all of those lands on the map, when actually lives in a dome.

In Truman's world, the Earth does not spin to cause the heavens to move. Rather, he walks about on a motionless plane relative to a rotating sun, moon, and stars in the sky, which is a physical barrier that separates his world from the outside world where the gods of his world live. Is any of this obvious to Truman? - No. Truman thinks that he's the one moving, and not the sun, moon, and stars. Rather, when Truman looks up at the sun, he thinks it's 92 million miles away, a giant fireball of unfathomable size and fury, when it is just a circling light in sky. When he looks up at the stars and planets, he thinks that they are various enormous sized gas, rock, and fire balls, millions to billions of miles away, with no physical barrier between him and them, just vacuous space, when they are merely moving lights on the ceiling of his world, which is not very far away at all. And when Truman looks up at the moon, he sees the most vivid of all the celestial objects, a gigantic rock that is 230,000 miles away, which actually is just a moderately sized office building for his normal human-sized TV executives who control him, also within his own world. Truman can't discern that the objects in the sky are moving, not him, and that they are small objects that are close, rather than huge objects that are really far away. Is this because Truman can't innately determine the difference between a close object that is small and a large object that is far, or is it ONLY because he was conditioned from childhood to believe the opposite of what he can accurately sense?

Before I go into how being blind to his reality influences Truman's behavior, I want to comment on the moon being the studio office. This is one major reason why I think that this whole movie is layered with deeper esoteric meanings. The main producer of the show, Christof (another interesting name choice), known as "the architect", is interviewed from the 221st floor of the moon. According to ancient non-mythology, and corroborated in various accounts esoteric history gleaned from archives of secret societies and old mystery schools, which initiated all of the major historical figures of science and influence, by the time the Earth had adequately densified such that the gods, who once lived amongst us, had difficulty incarnating in a physical form on the Earth, where they could interact with humans for significant amounts of time, then it was believed that they could only get as close as the moon. It was then that the demi-gods would continue to make very brief incarnate appearances on the Earth, and influence our affairs. They were known as the tutuwan, or 2-2-1, or Titans. Why the 221st floor? Gods that come from another world down into our world to meddle in our affairs? I get the impression that the makers of the movie were very particular about this detail.

Now, back to Truman.

Aside from stifling his curiosity, discouraging pursuing his passions, i.e. the normal school stuff, and just being kind of a funny scene in the movie, what about deceiving Truman about his world, in and of itself, would make him more controllable? As a matter of practicality, I understand that they would want to discourage him from exploring. But, they didn't have to tell him that he was on a globe, in space, or that there were even all of these other lands in his world to explore at all. Rather, they could have told him anything! He wouldn't have known otherwise. In fact, they could even have told him that he lives in a confined dome with no exit. But, they didn't. They told him that he was on a globe, which is also implied when Truman wistfully confides his deepest desires about traveling to Fiji with his "friend" and he gestures on his golf ball to model a trip around the Earth: "Fiji. You can't go any further before you start coming back." Is there something about believing that he is living on a globe that discourages him from taking that trip? Is there something about believing in that lie that keeps him from acting on his deepest desires?

Now, there are other ways that Truman was manipulated too. He was traumatized as a child from the fake death of his father at sea, which instilled within him a convenient fear of traveling over water. Furthermore, he was given a comfortable life, with an attractive wife, nice house, and steady job in order to dampen his yearning for daring adventure. In addition, his "friend" would come over regularly to cheer him up with alcohol to distract Truman from his despair in dreams not fulfilled. However, it wasn't being deprived of any of these comforts that inspired Truman to rebel. In fact, none of these conditioning factors even matter, including his deep rooted fear of water, once Truman realizes that the world that he thought he was living in is a lie.

When Truman thought that he was just a random guy living a meaningless life, he never took a risk, never acted on his impulses, neglected all the yearnings of his heart, and overall just accepted a mediocre life of comfort, but dissatisfaction. However, once Truman realizes that he is not just some random guy, rather he is an important guy, that in fact he is the center of his world, and that his whole world was created for him, then that changes everything. Instantly, he is curious about his world again. He wants to explore it. Most importantly, he is no longer willing to let his fear hold him back. Instead, he acts with purpose, determined to discover the truth of who he really is and what his world is about.

He is still afraid at first, but willing to take risks. He starts driving over bridges, trying to catch ferries, and book plane tickets off the island. He is willing to drop his boring job, fake wife, and all the other mundane pleasures distracting him from expressing his true self. The more risks he takes, the more impulses he follows, the more emboldened he becomes, ultimately outwitting the massive sophisticated hidden production surveillance network on him and setting sail on a boat off his island to the unknown. Why? Why such a radical shift?

Obviously, no one likes being lied to, and there's a natural curiosity to that. But, this was extreme. Truman went from avoiding water his entire life, to the extent of being too afraid to drive across a 30 ft long bridge, to screaming out "you're going to have to kill me!", 100% willing to die, sailing through an artificially created storm, getting thrashed around, half drowning to death, and having no clue where he was going. My interpretation is that it's because Truman, for the first time in his entire adult life, was willing to trust himself.

We have two guides in this life: our intuition, which tells us right from wrong, and our heart, which informs us of who we are, what we are supposed to do in this lifetime, and whether or not we are on track. Truman always had the impulse to explore, and he always yearned for something greater than his mundane life, but he never acted on any of that. He didn't trust himself. He doubted his intuition, and he neglected his heart in favor of practicality and security. Once he uncovered the false reality, though, and only then, is he inspired to follow his inner guides. It validates a suspicion that he had his entire life, which is that he has a purpose. When we are the center of creation, then we must have a purpose. And when we realize that we have a purpose, then we are emboldened to indulge every impulse and instinct we've ever had, and to follow them to the unknown, exploring our mysterious and wondrous world, totally and completely free.

So, to answer the original question, "why would someone even make up the globe?", it's because believing that the Earth is round and spinning, when all of your senses tell you that it's flat and motionless, undermines our fundamental trust in our inner guides. And that's a problem, because we're no longer free. When we can't tell, instinctively, right from wrong, and we ignore our heart's expression of our true selves, such that we don't know who we are, where we are, and why we are here, then we are totally disoriented. This makes us much more likely to surrender to our fear, exchanging security for risky realization of our true potential. And not only does that make us miserable slaves to our insecurities, it also makes us vulnerable.

When we live in fear, not trusting of our inner guides telling us who we are and what is right, not knowing what to believe, then someone can come along and tell us what to believe instead, probably that same someone who made us doubt ourselves in the first place, in order to manipulate and control us for the purposes of abiding dominion. For example, and this is really the offensive part that I alluded to before, when we live in fear, with no sense of our inner guide, then we might end up standing in a long line to get injected with a concoction of chemicals that we don't care to know the ingredients of, while breathing in micro-plastics through a nylon mask to prevent the incidence of respiratory disease, next to a newly erected 5G tower, which is emitting unprecedented levels of radio-frequency field strength, hundreds of thousands of times greater than anything we would naturally experience on the Earth, which has been known since the advent of man-made electric fields to trigger a scalable respiratory detoxification response, while people are being carted out of the facility by emergency medical services after massive heart failure following the injection, all because we are told by (unhealthy-looking) high priests of scientific knowledge and wisdom, with a "Dr." in front of their name, on narrowly controlled corporate media, which includes, to a great extent, the pharmaceutical companies that happen to produce that particular concoction of chemicals that we are in line to get injected with, that doing so will protect us from a thing that we cannot see, feel, or sense in any way, nor can the high priests and priestesses, with their vast technological prowess, produce an actual image of that thing, other than a cartoon, or really any substantial evidence of its existence other than they are all saying it exists, and it's a matter of "public safety", and so then it must be true. That is to say, without our intuition to guide us, we're really stupid, and we'll believe just about anything.

Getting injected with poison to protect ourselves from a fake virus under a constant microwave with our phone in our pockets while people are dying from that injection right in front of us is bad enough, but when we do not listen to our heart to tell us who we are and what we are doing here, then we have lost our identity. And that's even worse. That's long-term. Without our hearts to guide us, we will not act courageously or even enthusiastically in anything we do, and accept a mediocre life. Nobody wants to accept a mediocre life. We don't tell our children, when they are full of wonder and potential, to grow up and accept a mediocre life. No one wants to grow up and become a miserable coward. It's bad for us. But most of us do, because we stop listening to our hearts, and we make compromises, and sell out our dreams for a guarantee. That's the deal with the devil that we don't realize we're making. I see it. And I don't like it.

The purpose of this whole article is not to convince anyone that the Earth is flat, or that the fake solar system is directly responsible for the fake virus hysteria that defined the beginning of this decade, or even for me to be wildly provocative, which I clearly like to be. Rather, the point is that I don't want to live like Truman BEFORE he snapped out of his false reality. Rather, I want live like Truman AFTER he figures out that he has a purpose. In fact, I think that's how everyone wants to live. We all want to live like Truman when he trusts every instinct he has ever had, when he rebels, when he faces his fears, when he challenges his beliefs and status quo in steadfast pursuit of the truth, and not just accepts a mediocre life of comfort in faintheartedness. That's why the movie is inspiring. It strikes that chord in all of us. And I'm not expecting to convince anyone that the Earth is flat, but that's exactly what I believe. I have to! Otherwise, how would I ever trust any instinct, sense, or inference of mine ever again? I would be completely lost in a confusing world, full of doubt and fear, clinging to my small, random, meaningless, and temporary life with utmost deference to the information authorities who lied to me in the first place. That's what the solar system does to us! That's why they made Truman believe in it. And I don't want to live that way. And, moreover, as far as I can tell, it's not even true.

So, I'm going to trust my inner guides, my heart and intuition, to determine what it right and what is true. I'm going to continue to believe that the Heavens and the Earth were created, moreover they were created for us, for our experience, in which there is a grander purpose for our existence, i.e. it matters, and we are equipped with a carefully curated vessel in which to have this meaningful experience. Because that's my best chance at life.

This is ostensibly a hair loss website, but it's also about alchemy. Alchemy is the science of spiritual experience. It's about uncovering the truth about ourselves and our grander purpose. Hair is secondary. It's a means to an end, and the end, according to The Truman Show, is the far reaches of our realm, where the sky meets the ground, where we leave our world to walk freely amongst the gods who created it. That is the destiny of the True Man and that sounds right to me (and note the Christ pose).

Of course, this would not be a free blog article if I didn't try to sell you something. If are curious whether you have been lied to about living on a globe, and you live in close proximity to a large body of water, then consider buying a Nikon P1000 high powered optical zoom camera with this affiliate link , and doing some spherical geometry calculations. If anything, it's a good opportunity to buff up on your middle school math skills, as well as get outside and enjoy some sunshine and fresh air in God's (or the gods's) flat motionless creation. This is the camera that I used to do my investigation. Unfortunately, but fortunately, I moved out of the bay area and now I use it mostly to take pictures and videos of Cassandra (my 2 year old daughter). It's good for that too, as well as shooting alternative male pattern baldness theory and reversal strategy YouTube videos.
