By "our tools" I am referring to the commonly used tools which all of us
consider as "our own" because they are available for our choice to use.
Neither you nor I actually designed or built these tools. Yet, they are
humanity's tools. Our tools. There is frequent discussion of new ideas for
3D and the quest goes on. It's disturbing that the specific combination of
features that may make a more ideal 3D system may have already been invented
and thrown away because it's true value wasn't recognized.
