That is a picture of the inauguration taken with a camera developed out of technology from the Mars missions.

You can zoom in with amazing clarity. Like, for example it looks like Clarence Thomas is falling asleep. But the Secret Service snipers on the building in the far back ground, top right corner, do not look like they are taking a nap.

Huh? You'll have to explain that one to me.

If you zoom in past the lady with the black faux fur hat and turquoise scarf, against the white backdrop of the bleachers on the left it looks like a guy's pointing a rifle.

Zoom in and you can tell that it's a microphone.

Things like that must give the Secret Service heartburn all the time.
