The pictures from the tail of the DC 10 were certainly spectacular but
weren't the only OM pictures in National Geographic.  I vividly remember
an article on a gorilla that had been taught sign language that took a
self portrait in a mirror using an OM-1.  The camera was clearly
identifiable.  I don't remember the year but I think it was in the late
70's.  Anyone else remember this article?

I have that issue at home. Bought it second hand, guess why...
On the cover is Gorilla Koko taking a self portrait with an OM 2
with a Zuiko 55 mm F1.2 and a motordrive 1.
Besides the OM 2, it is a very interesting article of a Gorille reaching
the IQ of a 4 year old human child!
I will mail the year and month of this issue tomorrow.
