This YouTube video is an excerpt from a British Documentary show called Enigma. This particular episode was about how what we see and hear can be influenced by suggestion. This is really interesting to watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0IqbIs9gwo

Yeah if you look at the Abbey Road album cover you can tell because Paul has no shoes on and he is smoking a cigarette.

The episode this was from was quite interesting. The whole point of the show was that even trained observers such as scientists can be tricked by the power of suggestion.
They even went on to suggest that magicians and salespeople would be better at investigating claims of paranormal activity than many scientists are. The reason is that scientists are trained to question methods and data, they are not always skilled at questioning the character of the individuals providing the data.

people always make fun of the to catch a predator guy for doing something like that.
"go ahead take a seat." "its okay take a seat." "im chris hansen, take a seat."
and they usually do sit down.

ugh i had a friend that had the same problem. some dude was letting his big hiney german shephard poop in her front yard. and the HOA sent her a letter telling her to clean it up and it wasnt her dog. she was ticked, and one day she saw the guy and gave him the "death stare" and he stopped.
how to catch this dog...how about you leave a trail of treats to a trap and when it trips it they get swooped up into a giant net. muah ha ha ha...
