" Ms. Campbell's "realistic view of her vision" and willingness to practice are a plus, said Aries Arditi, senior fellow in vision science at Lighthouse International, a nonprofit agency overseeing her weekly training, which includes practice moving her head so the camera captures images and interpreting light as objects. "In 20 years, people will think it's primitive, like the difference between a Model T and a Ferrari," said Dr. Lucian Del Priore, an ophthalmology surgeon at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center, who implanted Ms. Campbell's electrodes. "But the fact is, the Model T came first." Ms. Campbell would especially like to see colors, but, for now, any color would be random flashes, Dr. Arditi said. But she saw circular lights at a restaurant, part of a light installation at an art exhibition. "There's a lot to learn," she said. Still, "I'm, like, really seeing this."
religion. England had been, less than 200 years previously, a Catholic (BigEndian) country; but a series of reforms beginning in the 1530s under King Henry VIII (ruled 15091547), Edward VI (1547 1553), and Queen Elizabeth I (15581603) had converted most of the country to Protestantism (Little Endianism), in the episcopalian form of the Church of England. At the same time, revolution and reform in Scotland (1560) had also converted that country to Presbyterian Protestantism, which led to fresh difficulties when England and Scotland were united under one ruler, James I (16031625). Religiously inspired revolts and rebellions followed, in which, indeed, one king, Charles I (16251649) lost his life, and his son James II lost his crown and fled to France (16851688). Some of these conflicts were between Protestants and Catholics; others were between different branches of Protestantism
