I’ve always loved Miltex instruments. Even more so now.

What? No references to Chuck Berry’s immortal “My dingaling”?

I’m picturing QTM’s reflection in the anoscope. Perhaps the anoscope allows us to see the dark reflection of our soul! :eek:

Let’s see, you have a dark goatee and shoulder length blondish hair. You appear somewhat thin, but that could be an effect of the shape of the device. Not sure if you have glasses on, the blown up view gets a little blurry towards that part of your face. Perhaps some of our photoshop/CSI inclined dopers can back out a picture for us. 🙂

There is clearly a man’s reflection in the silver bullet bell part of the anoscope. He is wearing a white lab coat so I assummed it was the Doc since he said it was his hand in the video. All I did was pause the movie, did a print screen and took it into a word document and blew it up 400X. Granted, the image is distorted because of the shape of the mirrored surface, but if its not a reflection of QTM, then who was holding the instrument? 😕

I was certainly not wearing a white lab coat when I was making the video. No one else was in my video studio (AKA the kitchen) at the time of filming.

I’d love to see your 400X blowup, though.

… but it’s unintelligible to me. I always wanted to print out something like this ( the load was huge, I suspect a print would run 30-50 pages ), and leaf through it as I sat on a crowded airplane.

A Straight Dope mug to the person who can translate this.

Joseph’s Technicolor Dreamcoat…Qadgop’s musical, medical anoscope.

I’m not seeing much of a difference here.

**toonie** , done! Check your email.

I don’t usually do things like that, but when you set it up on a tee for me like that, I can’t help but swing for a home run!

**Si Amigo** , that’s not me in the photos! _I_ think the anoscope always keeps an image of the last person on whom it was used on it!!
