Richard Wiseman has just blogged on how some people see faces in inanimate objects. Check out the blog here, but first, what about this.

Richard would explain this in terms of psychology and interpretation. But it’s clear this gate guardian of my (then) fiances’s flat in San Francisco is keen-eyed, shod, armed – and DANGEROUS.
Since the mid 1980s, I've worked in university and industrial research, as a manager and editor in technology and environment for an international industry association, and held senior business development, strategy, and procurement posts in industry. I hold a PhD in chemical engineering from Birmingham University, an MBA from Warwick University Business School, and an MSc in Science Communication from Imperial College. In 2008, I left industry to focus full-time on my passion for science and technology, and to share that enthusiasm with others as a freelance science communicator. I live in London with my wife Erin.
