Right.
It allows me to look at a Weimaraner and not just know it's a
Weimaraner----but what KENNEL it came from. Not all of them, of course! <G> But the bigger
kennels have traits that are recognizable to me (and most Weimaraner
breeders).
The average person can't tell one breed from another---and a ring full of
100 Weimaraners just looks like a sea of grey dogs. Some of us can point out
the next Best in Show winner and tell you who his sire and dam probably are.

There were hundreds of thousands of years when humans had no need of reading

identify what was good to eat, or which animal could eat them.

OOOH! I was at the bank this morning. A man in front of me made a deposit
that included and counterfeit $20! It was sooo cool! I asked the teller how she
knew, what to look for, what she does next, etc. I was glad to have been
inside rather than the drive-through today!

**Rowan I went shopping last week and my debit card wouldn't go through.
The cashier and manager couldn't figure out why - something on the bank's
end - so I told them I'd go get some money and come back. When I paid them
with a hundred dollar bill the same manager came over to check it out. I
thought that was cool and said something like, "How can you tell? Can we
watch?" and the two women looked at each other and me funny and then acted
relieved that it wasn't fake. I guess being interested can be very
suspicious <g>. ~Rue

DARN! Kirby's not home or I would ask him. They check twenties where he
works. For the new bills, there's a marker they run over it and if it's a good
one the mark disappears (???) and if not, not.
I think.

I had a fake $100 at Costco one day, the cashier noticed that it was slightly off color. Bank Of America gave it to me, I remember that it was a new pack of bills and it was the one on top. I'm almost certain know that THEY knew it was a fake and passed it off onto me. My guess is that a teller goofed by accepting it and it was put front and center to go back into circulation. I was out the $100.
Costco called the treasury department to check the serial number, it's the only sure way to tell. Some counterfeits can pass the marker test, I learned that from my little experience. I never take anything larger than $20 in cash from the bank anymore.
