Detroit Stereographic Society

[fj834@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Dr. George A. Themelis)]

A few days ago I commented on judging 7-p vs. 5-p slides and Realist 
vs. Twin-SLR.  I mentioned the Detroit club in my posting since this 
is the only place when I have actually seen judging taking place.  I 
would like to clarify that I have no, absolutely none, problem with 
judging in Detroit.  I was trying to make some general comments and I 
am glad that my comments were followed by valuable contributions from 
John Vala, Derek Gee and others.

This is my second year in Detroit... and I am having great fun or I 
would not be driving 6 hours once a month to go to these meetings.  
I have met some truly wonderful people and have learned (and still 
learning) a lot in the monthly programs and competitions.

The meetings are the second Wednesday every month at 7:30 in the 
Livonia Civic Park Senion Citizen Activity Center at Livonia, west of 
Detroit.  The next meeting is this coming Wednesday.  The subject of 
the competition is "Hyperstereo" (try this with a Realist!) and instead 
of a slide program we will have a stereo card competition.

Anyone within 300 miles (!) from Detroit should make an effort to come 
to these meetings... They are fun!
