I'm inclined to think the books need to be read as well as just examined; presumably the story line is also creepy.Karlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09925546212345361041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2402275990823741920.post-40407806617764985412009-09-10T03:39:09.907-04:002009-09-10T03:39:09.907-04:00these count as an absolute discovery, the pictures...these count as an absolute discovery, the pictures are incredible, thanks for posting as i will have to delve into a night in crystal cave... i agree with saskia WTF!!!!!srodenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02863279056994309967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2402275990823741920.post-4719120735486752022009-09-08T22:29:06.650-04:002009-09-08T22:29:06.650-04:00Eek, these are cool.
