We arrive in the morning with the excitement of Christmas day, except in October. We observe the two subjects off and on all day. Neither notices. What the hell? We discuss this and decide we have chosen the two subjects wisely. Any two people this oblivious are perfect subjects for an experiment of this magnitude. We look at the desks, still no change! We IM each other regarding this issue. Perhaps we picked the wrong object? I cannot believe that this is the case. We start loudly making comments to each other like: " Hey, do you have a paper clip I could borrow? I could sure use a paper clip.." or " You know what I wish? I wish someone would invent a device to allow the selection of only one paperclip at a time! That would be handy!!" The "tip-off" joking does not work. In fact we start laughing about it and that attracts more attention than anything.
