Looks good from that angle. What does the sealed top of the can look like? Could this be a empty can? |

That image looks to be lit by natural light, it is totally dark at the bottom of the Mariana trench. |

That image looks to be lit by natural light, it is totally dark at the bottom of the Mariana trench. Actually it looks to be artificial light, like at the bottom of an aquarium sitting in a photo studio, but that's just me. |

That image looks to be lit by natural light, it is totally dark at the bottom of the Mariana trench. Looking at the shadows,and the colour, I would say it is sunlight in shallow sea water. |

The main question is: How much would the can deform before the liquid in the can would stop any further implosion? I believe the bottom of that can is dented in much further than what one would be on any store shelf, or in an aquarium. :):) |

http://discovermagazine.com/galleries/2016/mariana-trench According to the one(so far) commenter there, the can is from 2010, so 6 years have passed since spam reached a new low, and yeah spam is very salty from My point of view.

Straight No Chaser's Movie Medley I'll have to remember to watch that later on another computer. One of them graduated from my school. David Sitting on my butt while others boldly go, Waiting for a message from a small furry creature from Alpha Centauri. |

I see no real proof that the can is underwater at all. It has multiple shadows, indicating artificial light (multiple sources or maybe one very close). The surrounding area is too well lit to be entirely artificial. We also have no way of knowing if the can is still sealed or empty and topless.

Now this is a little unusual. Royal Mail unveils stamps to mark 50 years of Pink Floyd And just serves to make me feel even older!! Nice stamps though! |

Now this is a little unusual. That's pretty cool. Pink Floyd is really my favorite band. I saw them in 1994, the last time they played in the U.S. The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Now this is a little unusual. I have seen them many times, can't remember the first, think it was here: (yes Croydon is spelt wrong) or possibly here They were my all time favourite band. |

They were my all time favourite band. I would have to agree myself. One of the hallmarks of a great band like that is the fact almost every album is in itself a classic. Obscured by Clouds edges out Meddle as my favorite album, but the bottom line is there is a Pink Floyd album that suits just about any mood I'm in. I could go on and on...

I was in Brighton UK in june 1972. We knew that Pink Floyd would play there but for some reason we didn't go to the show:( Many songs from the upcoming record Dark Side of the Moon! |

I like the fact that the Café forms does not make us have to put up with all the 'folderol' of the Politics thread. No cat calling, no vile oaths dedicated to the belittling of other Setizens who may perchance not agree with the intent of the thread, or any other such insults. I totally accept the wisdom of the monitors, and oligarchs who adjudicate the goings on here. Thank you! |

Hey, what's with the little "spinning" green stars? A subtle reminder to inform that one's subscription is running out :-) |

I have always in the past been happy about the lack of religious commentary. Of course religion should always be included with politics as naturally abrasive subjects. |
