OMG thought the headline meant that during "dating" someone somehow managed to take photographs of someone thru their clothing----kind of like superman's x ray vision.

Please note: This is an error. There is no coffee talk for today however, there is one for tomorrow. This event needs to be deleted. For some reason it keeps appearing every once in a while. I am a staff member with the History Center and fact checks should be forwarded to us.
