VERY common addition to the Rallye 350: Chrome trim rings. BTW - none had the W31 engine. That was just a rumor.

The Mantis Shrimp. They have something very unique about their physiology. They can see billions of different colors. Humans - between 1 and 5 million.

Inside the human eye we have cone cells. 3 of them. This is the part of the eye that distinguishes different shades of color. The Mantis Shrimp has 16 cone cells per eye. Not only can they see billions of colors, they can see in the Ultraviolet spectrum. No other animal has that many cone cells in their eyes.


Mother Nature felt is was more important for us to distinguish different shades of black to white instead of color. Better for survival. Especially in low and no light situations.

Speaking about human vision, this is what our eyes see.



The human brain corrects what are eyes see by doing a "180" with everything we see when our eyes are open. Human Vision is like a Camera. It has two parts: the lens and the "brains." Both work together to give us normal sight.

I remember back in Public School watching a film about an experiment. A man put on a set of special "glasses" (they looked like Night Vision Glasses) which switched this view by 180 degrees. Initially - everything he saw was upside down. But after a few days, the brain corrected this and he saw normally. They shot footage of him riding a motorcycle wearing the glasses. Of course when he removed the glasses, everything went upside again and he had to wait for his brain to correct it a second time. Circa 1959.
