I was trying to tell my Persian friend that the stability balls reminded me of space hoppers. But I don't think they ever had space hoppers in Iran, even under the Shah. I wonder if there still would have been a revolution in '79 if they had them there? Don't suppose it would have made a difference, but I loved my space hopper in the 1970's. Intriguingly enough, when I imported the image into iPhoto the software labeled is as "Library 1970". I'd say this hopper was more vintage 1973 myself.
There are some real people in the world, and some who are pretend.
