Thanks, Kevin - Amazingly creative dual use for those images.
This list (3000) is ALWAYS a source of great information both OT as well as relevant OT material.

Subject: Captcha video
For those that may find interest in those somewhat annoying letter pictures (call Captcha) that you have to re-type in - I pass along this interesting and amusing video.
(I was just checking out the mpesupportgroup.com site and noticed on their contact page, a graphic display of a Captcha.
Instead of hard to read letters, they have an animated "waving flag" style)
