This one, however, just struck me as being stupid: Op Lets People Upgrade Their Eyes To HD It says that people can now have an operation which will give them better than 20/20 vision, which they call "HD vision". ...

About Wilf's Blog
I'm a mathematician, but apart from that, I'm a fairly normal guy. I used to write a blog - this blog. I write (wrote) about whatever is on my mind. It can get quite personal sometimes.
