Re: Anaglyphs on tv

Here's a question which has gone back and forth a few times
(as you can tell :-) between myself and the original mailer.
For reasons I won't go into here, for the present time the 
poster and project involved needs to remain on the Q.T. (everyone
old enough here to know what that means?). It involves what
would be the BEST anaglyph values to use for the widest audience
on an NTSC system (even knowing that many sets will be hopeless in 
having the right colors to make the anaglyph work right).

If you have suggestions, please either post here, or back to
me privately, and I'll pass them along.
