Don't talk to me about spiders!
In the early days I was caught out 
several times by events that resembled
magnitude 7+ teleseisms, only to 
discover that miniature daddy long legs
busy spinning webs between the seismic 
mass and the frame.  The way a spider 
no more than 2mm across its body can throw 
around a a seismic mass at least a million times 
heavier than itself is awesome.

Cheers all arachnidphobes,

Danie Overbeek.
