    Alas, many of the col­ors shown here are not “visu­al” but “rep­re­sen­ta­tion­al.” In oth­er words, this is NOT what you would “see” if you could wit­ness these events. A dis­claimer may have been in order.

    This is a scam. 15 zsec­ond add to get not the 6 min clip, I got 45 sec­onds, then anoth­er 30 sec­ond ad.

    And to think I almost shut the page down on the first ad.
