I heard about your studies and lab on NPR. When I went to the site I was facinated. I have a small business that designs products which help horse owners releave the onslaught of flies in their barns during the summer months. http://www.horseflynet.com is the site. I would love to pass on this source to our customers who have so many inquiries about flies. May I do that? It looks like you are offering this as an Im to friends. Thank you Karleen

The best technology is simple in design,the fly is a good example of perfection,only if we could master there wing control,we would have to be careful,I don’t think we could handle the high G loading,we would turn to mush.

The glass was halfway raised on the window at my workbench. A green fly came in the door and went right to the screen of the half-open window, proceeding to crawl around on the portion of the screen that still had glass in front of it. Every now and then it would launch buzzing from the screen and bump the glass, land back on the screen and continue walking around on the screen. It was obviously tryng to find a way from the situation but it kept pointed up and working the top half of the ‘chamber’ it was in, when it could have moved to the bottom half and escaped. As simple as this might seem to an arrogant personality I was absolutely in awe of the behaviour it exhibited. Rather than close the glass at the end of the day I spent several difficult minutes (window at the back of the bench) capturing the fly to return it back outside.
Marvelous creatures. I enjoyed your show.
