I can see through your eyes
Glasses to allow you to read information reflected on the cornea

Quite often, for example in the bank, or at a job interview, it would be useful to be able to read the information that the other person has about you. Sometimes you are able to do this if there happens to be a reflective surface near the computer screen, etc. While not sure exactly of how the optics would work, it would be great to have a pair of glasses that would allow me to magnify the reflection in the other person's eyes or on their glasses, to a size that would allow me to read it. Of course it would be in reverse, but thats fairly easy to compensate for.

       Might work on his head, though...

       Not a Kat's eyes. We see quite differently. [acat] ? [thecat] ? doesn't see from either point of View apparently.

       [TheKat] Try making some sense when you are being dishonest and snotty. Then at least you will be getting one thing right.

       Anyone tempted to believe this read the pertinent item and perhaps Tiger Lily and thecat (July 2003).

       [The Kat] is the one understood.
