2 AnswersSingles & Dating3 years agoDo animal said to "see" (other things and animals or prey) by infrared light actually "see" a definite image; or something else?
The question occurred to me as I used my
TV remote and pondered, "Would, say, a frog in the room see a steady or pulsing beam or "halo" of light issuing from my remote's sender to the TV set? Or, something more akin to a person flicking a light switch on and off repeatedly in the people animal niche? What say y'all? BA for most creative!
4 AnswersZoology3 years agoIs there anyone left who comprehends and can say how to use the expression, to “reach out”?
Or, has it been lost to entire present generations, both of the emerging and of the still-aging adult populations?
Because media power, both broadcast and on line, has long since come—an outsider acquaintance tells me—to be concentrated (no longer in New York but) in California, with its historic, self-imposed, substandard 2 R’s educational curricula & its widespread rhetorical quasi-illiteracy in English, that state continues to disseminate worldwide such faux cognizances as not knowing how to use the phrase, “reaching out”: such as which in former (pre-WWW) times was common knowledge even among pre-adults in the rest of the country.
For example, said friend advised me that the email response by a Sacramento gov’t agency promising to “reach out” to me later about a query I posed on line was a form of California nonsense. True? Or, false?
