Reminds me, at the last camera show I attended a dealer showed me a lens
that had a large dead insect (looked like a male mosquito or a mayfly)
trapped inside. We pondered this for a moment and decided that someone had
to have placed it in there deliberately as a joke. It couldn't have crawled
in their while small and lived long enough to grow that big.
