I haven't tried it. But the camera is ordinary. We also did an experiment with a match lit under the glass. There plasma flashes too.

Crimea, Yevpatoria, b/o Priboy. I go up to the water kiosk and ask the lady at the window:
- Is there any Sevastopolska from the fridge?
- Is there - the answer follows.
I hold out my money, receive a bottle and feel that it is not cold at all.
- And why is it warm? - I say. And I get a stunning and utterly disarming answer:
- My fridge doesn't work.
After that I began to ask whether there is cold.
Zzy: and this woman probably used to work as a programmer.

Havana, first day, hot. A bar with bottled beer pops up. Vocabulary - one word, serbesa (beer). Bartender replies - serbesa no fria! Doesn't sell it. We thought it was a bad look, or we needed cards. Then it turned out that they hadn't brought any ice, and warm beer doesn't count as beer.
