I’ve now blocked omegle from my tumblr dashboard. I got tired of blocking so many users.

I’m a geek and found this minor error in Sherlock’s recently aired The Hound of the Baskervilles.

The photo shows images of either a PET scan (or some other nuclear test of the brain) or a functional MRI.  Essentially the colors map areas of the brain that are more active. Yet, the earliest functional mapping of the brain was with fMRI which didn’t happen until the early 1990’s.  

The H.O.U.N.D project from Liberty, Indiana didn’t END until 1986.

Those pretty colored pictures shouldn’t be in that file.

I love this show to death, but yeeeah you’re right… also then there’s my shtik with how no animal testing facility is set up that way.  Dogs and primates (and chinchillas? wtf?) in the same room alongside the actual laboratory equipment.  And regardless of your clearance you would be required to do a wash-in and wash-out (shower, change clothes and repeat on exit) if you were doing anything with primates… Sherlock and John weren’t even given footcovers or a mask *animal testing rage* …atleast they got the animals mostly right, rhesus monkeys and beagles are the most commonly used breed/species of dog and primate used in laboratory research… Still loved the episode xD

I know! The whole security of the complex was ridiculous, the cross contamination between experiments just insane, and then the pipes leaking gas all over the place. Also, the scientists had no oversight and flexible ethics.
