Also capped both images at 0253 and 0256, both nearly identical in quality.  Here is the second:



At first glance I assumed that these came from RML due to the content.  The top text seems to say "If this is free..." followed by an image of the visible light spectrum.  Below seems to be an image of the radio spectrum followed by the text "...Why not this?"  This would have dovetailed nicely with the content of his discourse.

On closer inspection, these came from The Machine, and I can only assume that he's backing up RML's thoughts here.  Pretty cool to pull these out of your hip pocket on short notice.

Well done!
