For those of you who are out-of-towners,
the joke John is making here is that Carlye
has so many cats that nobody could possibly
recognize one from a photo! (It's kind of
like Dean & Debbie's kids.) But....

Since any picture of a cat of Carlye's would
be taken or scanned by David, I decided to
investigate. Digital photos have "digital
watermarks" to help track them in this age
of piracy and copyright infringement. A simple
Cut-n-paste of a cat from a scan of David's
would probably still have this identifying data.

Sure enough, I found it in the fist pic:

So while you may have fooled us, next time
we'll know where to look!

Bark!
