For "Single Lens 3-D?"

Actually, I didn't include the full list of features offered ...

...which include:

-Defeat or modification of inter-ocular adjustment
   so lenses are either too far apart or too close together.

-De-colimation of eyepieces

-Replacement of lenses with "half-lets" with pronounced
parabolic aberration.

-Gluing of dust specks and lint on all surfaces in the
viewing path

-Replacement of difusion screen with one with transmission
gradient

-Modification of transparency compartment to produce mis-alignment
of transparency and ensure non-perpendicular placement


-For illuminated viewer, modification of electrical contacts
to enhance reduced and flickering illumination

-Replacement of batteries with near-dead batteries of inadequate
capacity 

-But wait, there's MORE!

-Deluxe version may have blinking "12:00"

(later...)

The orders should be coming in fast pretty soon!

Cliff? Where are you?

Medication?  Where are YOU?
