This just deepens the love affair I have with Russian architecture. And neatorama is so neatorama! I love that site.

Dude, my job requires me to use a barcode scanner all day, so I had to try. That thing didn't scan.

iconomy, I agree with you about:

a. Russian architecture
b. Neatorama

jon, I agree with you regarding how cool barcodes are. You didn't say it, but I know you were thinking it.

No, I wasn't. I've seen far too many of them for one lifetime.

And I suppose you'd rather punch in each of those numbers on a keypad?

I do that a lot, too. I'd rather not see 'em again at all, basically.
