     Harvey and I have agreed that just because one person can't see
something doesn't mean that someone else doesn't... Just go to the light,
Grandma! :=)

     But seriously, *absolute* fixation isn't needed for the proof... as I
sit here looking across the breakfast bar counter into the kitchen, if I
*seriously restrict* my gaze to the canister on the counter, even if I shift
my gaze around the canister and detect depth in it, the microwave, blender,
etc. on the counter across the kitchen are doubled and do not show any depth
other than from secondary influences. Closer objects on the computer desk are
the same, but more out of focus.

     Please do this experiment with care... I don't want emergency lines
overwhelmed... "Norbert, snap out of it! Are you ok! Or is this one of those
crazy 3-D things, again?" :=)
