All kiddding aside Dan, I don't think that a computer anaglyph can compare
with a slide, especially when realism is concerned.  When people look at a
fine grained slide stereo image in a good quality viewer they comment on
how realistic it looks and are even bothered by "frozen action" and other
elements that contradict with a real scene.  I don't think that an anaglyph
can generate the same reaction.  Especially a computer anaglyph.  It can be
a good stereo.  But it is not very realistic, meaning it cannot be confused
for reality.

>I think I need to send you a sample of a good anaglyph image, they really 
>I can be realistic...  Dan =) =)

The above is my personal opinion based on what I have seen so far.  I am
sorry if I am too passionate about it.  Perhaps when I get to be Dr. G's
age, I'll be less passionate.  You can go ahead and send me a good anaglyph
image and perhaps a pair of the best glasses to view it with.  I'll take a
look and post my honest opinion here.
