Coolest Optical Illusion Ever
Oct 28, 2005 | 11:21PM
I stumbled across this amazing illusion today. Focus on the moving pink dot, and it's pink. Focus on the center "plus," and the moving dot turns green -- and all the other pink dots eventually disappear! This will truly blow your mind.

I saw another optical illusion today, too. I spotted two more gray hairs in the bathroom mirror at work today. But where I used to let that bother me, I now ignore it. Age -- and gray hair -- is an illusion.

That's cool, huh!
My mom sent that to me in a email a couple months ago. Is your dog a Bijon Freze (sp) I'm wondering, my brother wants one of those! =)

That is pretty neat! I'm sending it to my friends as well. I've noticed that you don't even need to look at the plus sign, as long as you focus your gaze anywhere else on the page besides the dots, the same effect occurs :-D Thanks for sharing!
