Well they appear on my computer. Let's see if you can see the photos via this link Severn Valley Yes that's better, you might try view originals next time, then click on 'Copy Image Location', since that seems to work better and change the https to http, as I have done and the pics will display just fine.

I just spent well over an hour (in between watching stuff on TV) writing, unwriting, rewriting, revising, and appending the story of my weekend at the museum. Just when I was pretty satisfied and about to post it, the d@mn computer overheated and shut down. Rather than try to recreate it, I'll just give you this link to the first of two or three posts in Einstein's TLPTPW thread where I describe it.

The Amtrak Capitol Corridor train 532, which operates between San Jose and Sacramento, was heading east when it struck the car, Amtrak Spokesperson Vernae Graham said in a statement. @David, time to blow the dust bunnies out.
