    Might that be a struck through error?

    I don't think it's a strike through. Seems like a gouge and the metal is folded over next to it

    That was done by the highly elusive pygmy copper lizard. You can see where the highly corrosive acid from it's claw/foot melted into the metal. :)

    Just not sure if it's pre strike or what would cause it

    absolutely wrong.


    everyone knows that the pygmy copper lizard is now extinct.

    However, the non-pygmy copper lizard is still possible and alive and well in Ken @green18's back yard.


    silly people
