- 8:39am
- Bugscope Team hello mr. mcgeehan!
- Teacher Good morning...just checking in. Our kids start at 8:20.
- Bugscope Team Cool. We are setting up presets.
- Teacher FYI...our pretests showed that we failed internet connectivity...but we'll give it a try. Things on my screen look fine now!
- Bugscope Team that should be fine. if you have lag issues with driving we can help out as well
- 8:44am
- Bugscope Team Alex!
- Bugscope Team mr. mcgeehan, if you notice any lag, just try staying away from "click to drive" and "focus", everything else should be just fine.
- 8:51am
- 8:59am
- Teacher OK...I'm back...I was just getting the laptops for the kids ready. I'm going to test the navigation now.
- Bugscope Team Dude we are still setting up and have it locked. Can you give us a little more time?
- Bugscope Team I think 5 minutes is good.
- Teacher Yep...let me know when it is ready to try...thanks
- 9:04am
- Bugscope Team You are good to go, Mr McG.
- Teacher How do I find the different presets of other specimans?
- Bugscope Team they should be in the lower right corner, if you dont see them then try widening your browser
- Bugscope Team the presets should all be to the right of the chat, maybe F5?
- Teacher OK...got them
- 9:09am
- Bugscope Team fruit fly ommatidia
- Bugscope Team these have bits of silica, we think, on them from the critical point dryer
- Bugscope Team microsetae
- Teacher Ok...I've got to go out and greet kids...back in about 9 minutes with the crew!
- Bugscope Team here if you use the Adjust function you can fix the contrast/brightness
- Bugscope Team all right! see you then
- 9:26am
- Bugscope Team Hello! Welcome to Bugscope!
- Bugscope Team this is a fruit fly
- Bugscope Team you can see the compound eyes, the antennae, the mouth
- Student why does it have 4 eyes
- Bugscope Team it has five eyes, really
- Bugscope Team it has two compound eyes and three ocelli
- Bugscope Team ocelli are 'simple' eyes
- Bugscope Team on top of the head
- Bugscope Team the things that look like eyes in the center of the head are the antennae, which have two parts
- Student what are the hairs on its eyeball?
Bugscope Team they are just that hairs! but on insects we are supposed to call them setae, or seta for singular
- Bugscope Team there is a sort of pad portion and a branched portion
- Bugscope Team the hairs are there to help tell the insect the direction of wind movement
- Bugscope Team silver paint
- Bugscope Team there are setae all over bugs usually. Setae all have their job, some are for tasting or smelling and some are for feeling
- Bugscope Team now the edge of the stub
- 9:31am
- Bugscope Team this is the doublestick carbon tape at the edge of the aluminum stub the samples are mounted on
- Bugscope Team this is an owlfly larva
- Bugscope Team this is an owl fly larva
- Bugscope Team they are predators as kids and as adults
- Student what is an owl fly
- Student why does it have feathers
Bugscope Team those are sensory setae (remember setae are hairs)
- Bugscope Team they are not really flies -- they are more closely related to antlions
- Student what are all of the feathery thingys?
- Bugscope Team looks like feathers doesn't it?
- Student what are the horns coming out of its head
- Bugscope Team they are the setae covering its dorsal side
- Bugscope Team owlflies resemble dragonflies when they are adults
- Student what are the bumps on the head
Bugscope Team if you took the mag up on those, they look like cacti
- Bugscope Team and as Cate says they are likely sensory
- Bugscope Team those are tiny setae as well
- Bugscope Team some of those setae are probably triggers that cause the jaws to snap shut on prey
- Bugscope Team you could barely see the eyes, which are on stalks
- 9:37am
- Bugscope Team the eyes could be seen better from a dorsal view
- Bugscope Team this is a few sections of a huge millipede, or was...
- Bugscope Team now the ant...
- Bugscope Team now the millipede
- Teacher trying to get the ant head up...doesn't seem to be working
- Bugscope Team looks like it is getting so many commands it doesn't know what to do
- Bugscope Team I just clicked on the ant head as well...
- Bugscope Team there we go
- Bugscope Team ok it should be fine now
- Teacher Ok...we'll just hang out for a bit...the kids say they've got the ant head but it doesn't show up on mine
- Bugscope Team Cate had to go in a move the 'scope
- Bugscope Team refresh
- Bugscope Team if you have a blank screen at all try refreshing your browser
- Student what are the lines on it
Bugscope Team that is some sort of texture on it that we think makes them look shiny
- Bugscope Team Mr McG do you have an image now?
- Student what are those things on his head
- 9:42am
- Teacher yep...just came up
- Bugscope Team antennae
- Bugscope Team and you can see one compound eye
- Bugscope Team the mouth is to the south, to the bottom of the screen
- Student What are the holes under the antennae
- Student no the small hair things
- Student no the holes
- Bugscope Team those are the ball and socket joints at the base of the antenna
- Bugscope Team the small hairs are sensory
- Bugscope Team now you are zooming in on the eye
- Bugscope Team ants use their antennae much more than their eyes for information
- Student what are the things on the antennae
- Bugscope Team recently there was an article about a 'living fossil' ant that has no eyes and a lot of 'primitive' features
- Student does it has feathers?
- Bugscope Team the antennae have chemoreceptors on them that allow them to process scent information
- Student why does it have feathers?
- Bugscope Team this is the moth, and the things that resemble feathers are scales
- Bugscope Team the scales are what make the moth or butterfly feel slick when you touch it
- Student why are they fluffy
Bugscope Team those are the feathers. it is the same as the powder that comes off them if you rubbed their wings
- 9:47am
- Student how many facets make up the eye
Bugscope Team it could be hundreds
- Bugscope Team one advantage of having scales is that you can slip out of a spider web -- the scales are very loose
- Student why are the anttenaes cut
- Bugscope Team the more an insect depends on its eyes (mostly flying insects) the more facets there are typically
- Bugscope Team here we can see the proboscis, in the middle of the head
- Bugscope Team so an ant that lives underground may only have 30 or so or sometimes you will find ants that have no eyes at all
- Bugscope Team this is just plain salt from wendys
- Bugscope Team the fast food place
- Bugscope Team the antennae are very fragile, and we do not always have pristine specimens
- Bugscope Team it is something fun and different to look at.
- Student Why does it have squares on it?
- Student thanx
- Bugscope Team this is pretty cool -- we think that the salt has smaller cubic crystals in it because sodium and chloride form cubes (squares) but there is also an anticlumping agent that causes the formation of tinier cubes.
- Teacher Thanks guys...this class is rolling out...Another group will start up in about 10 minutes
- Student thanks see ya later SHRED THE GNAR!
- Bugscope Team ok thanks for letting us know. and thank you all for your questions guys
- Bugscope Team Shred the Gnar
- Bugscope Team brb to much tea
- Bugscope Team too
- 9:54am
- Bugscope Team this is an alien lookin' creature
- Bugscope Team scary
- Bugscope Team landscape
- 10:03am
- Student .
- Teacher What are we looking at?
Bugscope Team these are the little setae on an owlfly larva
- Bugscope Team Hello!
- Bugscope Team this is the surface of the inner jaw of the owlfly larva
- Bugscope Team owlfly larvae are similar to snapjaw ants in that they use their powerful jaws to quickly catch insects
- Bugscope Team little setae, as Cate says, that look like cacti
- Bugscope Team the adults are also predatory and look like dragonflies
- Student oh wow thats amazing!! how far is this magnefied
Bugscope Team you should be able to see the magnification at all times in the upper right corner if you want
- Bugscope Team fierce predators
- Bugscope Team Owlflies are attracted to porchlights at night
- Bugscope Team 1670x
- Bugscope Team the adults that is, that is where I usually see the
- Bugscope Team them
- Bugscope Team you can see the micron bar on the lower left
- Bugscope Team 34 microns is 0.034 mm
- Student in real life how big is the owlfly larva
- Bugscope Team it is about the size of a capital letter in this text
- Bugscope Team maybe a little bigger
- Bugscope Team the microscope can magnify over 200,000x
- Bugscope Team but that is about the limit of a publishable image
- 10:08am
- Bugscope Team this is a scanning electron microscope with a field-emission electron gun. that gun gives us very good imaging capability and lets us go much higher in mag than a normal SEM
- Student what are those string like things
- Student what does it look like when u are zoomed in that close? (200,000x0)
Bugscope Team not much for insects unless there are some cool little things to look at like brochosomes. But even then at the distance the sample is at, it won't look very good
- Student `
- Bugscope Team the strings may be fungi that got onto the sample when it was in liquid
- Bugscope Team at that mag, Van and Rory, there is not much to see
- Bugscope Team this is the flat surface of the front of the jaw
- Bugscope Team Owlfly adults have huge eyes that help them see at night--that is where they get the name "owl" fly
- Bugscope Team this is another owlfly larva
- Bugscope Team this time it is on its back
- Bugscope Team we are looking at the ventral side, which is often more interesting
- Bugscope Team you can see now that it is a few mm long
- Student oh ok wow how big is the microscope
- Bugscope Team the microscope is big enough to have its own room
- Student how much does it cost
- Bugscope Team sort of the size of a large desk
- Bugscope Team you can see the huge jaws--the owlfly larva sits and waits with its jaws open until some unsuspecting prey insect gets too close, then WAP, the jaws snap shut and the owlfly gets a yummy meal
- Bugscope Team around $600,000
- Bugscope Team several years ago; now they are a little more
- 10:13am
- Bugscope Team they are related to antlions, which do the same sort of thing
- Bugscope Team owlyfly larvae hide themselves and sometimes decorate their bodies with grains of sand to camouflage themselves
- Bugscope Team scarab beetle!
- Bugscope Team 'cause of the lamellated antennae, Annie?
- Bugscope Team yup
- Student what are the 2 banana shaped tings at bottom
Bugscope Team those are antennae
- Bugscope Team you can see chemosensory pits in the slits that are exposed in those antennae
- Bugscope Team but they charge up with electrons when we get too close
- Bugscope Team they do look like bananas or combined with the branches golf clubs
- Bugscope Team the samples we are looking at are coated with a very thin layer of gold-palladium
- Student what are those hair things and what are they used for?
Bugscope Team the hairs are really hairs, but with insects we are supposed to call them setae, or seta singular. They are used to help insects feel the environment around them. They have that tough exoskeleton, and without the setae, which are connected to nerved under the exoskeleton, they wouldnt be able to feel anything
- Student I have cuaght a grass hoper with a stinger is that normal?
Bugscope Team I suspect that the "stinger" is actually a long ovipositor which the grasshopper uses to bury her eggs deep in the soil. The only insects with actual stingers are wasps, bees, and ants.
- Bugscope Team and the gold-palladium does not always blanket the sample uniformly
- Bugscope Team the stinger is an ovipositor
- Bugscope Team for laying eggs
- Student how does the bug digest and eat food
Bugscope Team Insects eat just like you and me, by biting off a piece of food and chewing it, or by sucking liquid up through their modified mouthparts. An insect's digestive system is much like ours, only much smaller. They have an esophagus, a foregut, a midgut, and a hindgut that digest food in different ways just like our stomach and intestines. They have things called Malpighian tubules that work sort of like our kidneys do.
- 10:19am
- Student why are the insects covered in gold-paladium
- Student why are they coverd in gold palladium
- Bugscope Team they are covered in gold-palladium to make them conductive, so that when the electron beam hits them it does not cause the images we get to flare up
- Student kkk
- Student what r those pointy things comin out of there eyes
- Bugscope Team the gold-palladium allows the electrons that the scanning electron microscope hits the sample with to go to ground rather than remaining in the specimen
- Bugscope Team those are also setae
- Student ?
- Bugscope Team the pointy things are used to detect windspeed
- Bugscope Team it also helps tell it if there is a flyswatter or a hand coming at it, so it can move away
- Bugscope Team or better, as Cate, says, the direction of the wind
- Student lalalal
- Bugscope Team compound eyes also have an advantage over our kind of eyes in that they are better equipped to detect movement
- Student How many facets make up this eye?
- Bugscope Team changes in what the fly sees are more readily detectable using compound eyes
- Bugscope Team there are hundreds to thousands of individual ommatidia -- the eye facets
- 10:24am
- Bugscope Team this is the tip of the proboscis of the fruit fly -- this is where it drools on its food and then sucks it up
- Bugscope Team it acts like a sponge
- Bugscope Team in some insects/arthropods their food is taken in as a liquid
- Student what are the little holes in the sponge
- Student my milkshake brings all the boys 2 the yard and there like
- Bugscope Team the little holes are where the digestive fluids are released and where, also, the digested fungi this fly eats is sucked up
- Bugscope Team Butterflies and moths feed on nectar from flowers and on sap and juice from rotting fruit
- Bugscope Team another case of liquid food
- Bugscope Team this is the ant
- 10:29am
- Student h
- Bugscope Team you can see that the ant has really small eyes
- Bugscope Team and it has larger antennae
- Bugscope Team ball and socket antennae
- Student fkkdj
- Bugscope Team its exoskeleton is sort of fluted, which probably makes it have a nice sheen in the light, and also makes it stronger
- Student what is the largest arthropod on the earth
Bugscope Team The largest insect is the titan beetle, a longhorned beetle that lives in the Amazon rainforest. It can be up to 6 inches long and about 3 inches across
- Bugscope Team blue whale?
- Bugscope Team This is for a couple of reasons: first it doesn't fly so it doesn't really need to process information very quickly. Second, ants live underground most of the time and they don't need big eyes. Third, and maybe this is because of 1 and 2, ants communicate almost entirely by taste and smell, so they don't need to see to know what is going on in their colony.
Bugscope Team This is the reason that ants have small eyes.
- Bugscope Team sea scorpion is the largest arthropod
- Bugscope Team some ants do not bother to have eyes at all
- Student what do they use those hairs for on there body
- Bugscope Team that ever lived
- Bugscope Team the hairs help it to sense its environment]
- Student how much does the microscope weigh
- Teacher How big was the sea scorpion and when did it go extinct?
Bugscope Team they lived from 510 to 248 myo and were on average 8 inches long, but there were some that were 6ft big
- Student why do
- Student 0.
- Bugscope Team the microscope weighs a little more than 2000 pounds, I think, altogether
- Student =)
- Student 88
- Student how much does micro
- 10:35am
- Student what is the smallest arthopod on earth
Bugscope Team I am not sure about the smallest arthropod, but I know the smallest insect is called a fairyfly. It is a tiny wasp and it is smaller than a dot on an i
- Bugscope Team if you go to preset 3 you can see one tiny arthropod
- Student how much does an ant eat per day
- Student How many times its body weight can an ant carry
Bugscope Team 10-20 times its weight
- Bugscope Team Apparently the smallest arthropod is a mite--a mite with no common name
- Student how many mites do you think live in my bed
- Bugscope Team this is a mite on the body of a millipede
- Student how long do mites live
- Bugscope Team could be thousands in your sheets -- that is what they say
- Bugscope Team we don't know too much about mites
- Student what do they eat
Bugscope Team They eat bacteria and fungi and other organic matter that accumulates on the outside of the host
- Bugscope Team they seem to 'go down with the ship' when their host dies
- Student jh
- Bugscope Team no one knows too much about mites actually...because they are so small and because there are so many of them, there are not very many scientists that study mites.
- Bugscope Team there are supposed to be mites that live on our eyelash hairs
Bugscope Team they are more at the base of the hair in the pores. I looked it up once
- 10:40am
- Bugscope Team we have found a lot of mites on insects, recently even one with eyes
- Bugscope Team and we are not sure sometimes whether anyone else knows about them
- Student can you get an infection from mites
Bugscope Team Yes, chiggers are mites, and they can cause a very itchy bite. The bite can get infected. Mites related to the chiggers that we have here can vector typhus....but not in this county.
- Student how much of those live on our bodys
- Student do mites die when you put mascara on
- Student bye
- Student how long do a cenipede live
- Bugscope Team generally I think they are benign that way but can give you allergies from breathing them in
- Student thank you
- Student thanks your awsome!!!
- Student thanku much g2g
- Student pce brothers pce
- Student u rock
- Student thank u so so so much shred the gnar and i hope i will be able to see this again have a good day and again SHRED THE GNAR
- Student PEA
- Student thank u sooooooooo much 4 this great time but we have class so ta ta
- Bugscope Team shred the gnar
- Bugscope Team Thank You!
- Student TYPO
- Teacher Great job guys...the kids loved it!!! We have a 48 minute break and will be back with the next class at 10:35 so take a break and enjoy a cup of joe.
- 11:05am
- Bugscope Team hi Shaun!
- 11:12am
- 11:39am
- Teacher OK...back with the next class, it will take them a few minutes to type in the address and get on line.
- Bugscope Team Great!
- Teacher By the way...what are we looking at currently?
- Bugscope Team this is another mite
- Bugscope Team on the millipede body
- Bugscope Team it was a huge industrial-sized millipede
- Bugscope Team and we have been cutting a few segments off at a time
- 11:44am
- Student What is that
- Bugscope Team that is a mite
- Bugscope Team on the body of a millipede
- Bugscope Team the millipede was so big we just cut segments from its body
- Bugscope Team if you take the mag down you can get an idea of the relative size
- Student how big is the microscope
- Student Is that the real color?
- Bugscope Team the microscope is like a large desk, sort of
- Bugscope Team the real color now is silver, since we coated the whole sample with gold-palladium]
- Student is it complicated to work?
Bugscope Team It is kind of like a video game, I think
- Bugscope Team gold-palladium takes its color from palladium, which is silver'
- Bugscope Team no you would be good at it
- Student what are the tentacle thingys on the mite?
- Bugscope Team it takes a little while to refine your ability to control it but it is pretty straightforward
- Bugscope Team well tentacle is a good word
- Bugscope Team they are the limbs
- Student What size can you compare the might to?
- Bugscope Team among them is the head, which is super tiny
- Bugscope Team you can see from the scalebar on the lower left that it is maybe 200 microns long, which is a fifth of a millimeter
- Student do mites live on us? if so how many?
- Student what kind of bug is it?
Bugscope Team they are in the same group as ticks- arachnids
- 11:49am
- Student how big can they get?
Bugscope Team The biggest mites are probably about 5 mm....the velvet mites that you often see in the woods.
- Bugscope Team it is blind, and we see them frequently on insects/arthropods, apparently the same kind
- Bugscope Team they don't seem to get bigger than this
- Bugscope Team yes mites live on us
- Bugscope Team sometimes on eyelashes, and usually inside the pore the eyelash comes out of
- Bugscope Team and dustmites are said to make up a large proportion of the weight of an old pillow
- Bugscope Team hard to believe
- Bugscope Team dustmites are different
- Bugscope Team from these
- Bugscope Team this is the compound eye of a fruit fly
- Student is there anything that you can do to get mites off of your body, like a shower?
- Bugscope Team the spikes are setae (or seta for just one) which are like hairs
- Bugscope Team keeping yourself clean and healthy keeps you from having too many
- Bugscope Team I think you cannot really rid yourself of them
- Bugscope Team (for the mites question)
- Bugscope Team better than having lice
- Bugscope Team the facets of the fruit fly eye are called ommatidia
- 11:55am
- Student what is the dust-like stuff on the facets?
Bugscope Team that is just dust or dirt or some stuff that got on it from when we dried it
- Bugscope Team and the setae between them are said to be useful in assessing the direction of the wind
- Student what are the setas for
- Student how many eyes do u think they have?
- Bugscope Team they give the fly an idea of the direction of the wind
- Bugscope Team someone has counted the ommatidia on fruit flies....
- Student is there a reason for the hexagon-shaped facets?
Bugscope Team they allow the eyes to have curvature by being that shape
- Bugscope Team I imagine there are close to 2000
- Student what got u interested in this kind of job?????
- Bugscope Team I wanted to be able to do something concrete in science
- Bugscope Team I just like science in general. By working with microscopes, I get to see a whole lot of sciences like engineering and biology
- Bugscope Team something that would not require too much interpretation, such as producing images of real things, real phenomena
- 12:00pm
- Bugscope Team we do get exposed to all kinds of cool edge research
- Student how much does the microscope cost?
- Bugscope Team and that is sort of addictive, in a good way
- Bugscope Team the 'scope cost about $600,000 in 1998
- Student why is it important for the facet to have curvature?
Bugscope Team Well, they have to curve because the eyes are rounded. And the eyes are rounded because they help the insect to see in all directions around its body
Bugscope Team for instance, with this fruit fly the eyes take up most of the head. Because of the curvature, they can see almst 360 degrees around them
- Bugscope Team we work in a suite full of about 20 microscopes
- Student hey! how much does the microscope weigh??
- Student what are the thorn things next to the eye on the top right?
Bugscope Team Those are setae, which are kind of like hairs. They help the insect to sense its environment
Bugscope Team those are some kinds different setae
- Bugscope Team we have a transmission electron microscope as well, plus lots of light microscopes and atomic force microscopes
- Bugscope Team setae can help the insect sense chemicals (smells) as well as things that might be touching them
- Bugscope Team insects have an exoskeleton, and the setae stick through and are connected to nerves on the inside of the body
- Bugscope Team it's like if you were wearing armor, you would not be able to sense things touching it very easily
- Bugscope Team the setae we see here on the tarsus are what help this insect climb walls
- Bugscope Team they are called tenent setae
- 12:05pm
- Student How many colors does a fly see?
- Bugscope Team sometimes when we see them on flies, among other insects, they resemble little suction cups
- Bugscope Team it probably depends on the fly, but generally I think they see all the colors we see and sometimes more
- Student what perpose do bugs have?
Bugscope Team very important purposed- like decomposing dead matter or pollinating plants to name a couple
- Student why do you have to cover the insects with gold palladium
- Student does the microscope ever break
- Bugscope Team some insects can see ultraviolet light, which we do not
- Student what r the little bristles for??
- Bugscope Team gold-palladium makes the electrons that hit the insect while we are imaging it run off to ground rather than building up in one place
- Bugscope Team it's like attaching wires to it so the electrical energy can be shed instead of causing the area we are viewing to charge up with electrons
- Bugscope Team basically it helps us get better images
- Student how much does the microscope weigh??
Bugscope Team pretty heavy. we wouldnt be able to lift it
- Student How long do flies live?
Bugscope Team There are a lot of flies and they have a lot of variation in life spans. A housefly probably lives about a month from the time it is an egg to the time it dies as an adult. Of course, their life could be longer or shorter depending on the weather, the time of year, and the availability of food.
- Bugscope Team the images that we see from the 'scope now come from the gold-palladium releasing what are called secondary electrons from the surface of the bug
- Bugscope Team I think it weighs a little more than a ton altogether
- 12:10pm
- Bugscope Team we brought the microscope in using a pallet jack and assembled all of the pieces
- Bugscope Team it has its own air, water, nitrogen, and electricity
- Bugscope Team if you see a small fly it will not grow up to be a big fly
- Student do all ants have the same partern of lines on its body or are they all difforent like ower finger print
Bugscope Team Each species is a little different for sure. I am not sure if each individual ant is different...that is a good question though.
- Student do the ants have compound eyes
Bugscope Team Yes, most of them so. But the eyes of ants are generally much smaller than the eyes of many other insects.
- Bugscope Team we think the lines make the ant look shiny
- Student are the eyes as big as the flys
Bugscope Team no, much much smaller
- Bugscope Team no the ant has very small eyes
- Bugscope Team you can see the little eye, right under the bend in the antenna
- Bugscope Team ants use their antennae for communication/sensing what is around them much more than they use their eyes
- Bugscope Team some ants doon't bother to have eyes
- Bugscope Team and recently someone discovered a 'living fossil' ant that has no eyes and has other features like soft mandibles that are considered primitive
- Student how powerful are an ants mandibles?
- Bugscope Team the idea is that ants might have started off underground, without eyes, millions of years ago
- 12:16pm
- Student y would th ants NEED ball&socket joints on their antenae?????
- Bugscope Team ants can cut leaves with their mandibles, and they can disassemble small animals/insects
- Bugscope Team the ball and socket joint allows great mobility
- Bugscope Team so the antennae can be moved where they are needed
- Student do ants have other joints like we have other than their antennae?
Bugscope Team They have many joints, there are joints between all the moving parts of an ants body. Kind of like a knight's suit
- Student were ants bigger millions of years ago??????
Bugscope Team Ants were probably never much bigger than they are now. Ants have an extraordinary range of sizes, from almost microscopic to almost 2 inches long.
- Bugscope Team the spikey things are bristles/setae that probably function much the same as cat whiskers
- Bugscope Team ants could have been bigger millions of years ago in general because there was more oxygen in the air
- Bugscope Team but not much bigger
- Student how fast could a swarm of army ant eat all the food in a 10 by 10 meter area?
- Student how much weight can a single ant carry
Bugscope Team they can carry 10-20 times their own weight
- Bugscope Team Thomas Eric I am not sure how long it would take but it would seem to be very quick
- 12:21pm
- Student bye scot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Student thnk u so much^^ bye!!!!
- Student thanks
- Bugscope Team Hey Thank You!
- Student thanx scot!!!!! peace out annie!!! GTG
