Thanks for the suggestion Sam!  The alternative (much less costly too!) is
to Visit-DrT.  That's what Paul Talbot did and we had a great time!  The 
program included:

- Family pictures and activities (including cooking lessons by Paul!)
- Stereo slide projection (how does 400 slides in two hours sound??)
- Playing with unusual viewers, including DrT's recently acquired Stereo
  Realist advertising viewer.  Also:  seeing DrT in action (frosting
  halogen bulbs!)
- Stereo photographic tour of Cleveland & 5 minute tour of DrT's work place
- Pleasant 6 hour drive back and forth to Detroit, listening to Jim's 
  stories on how he got his $10 TDC Projectors and $5 VM cutter! (also,
  plenty of photo-3d stories...)
- Presentation of slide of the year images in Detroit and meeting all the
  wonderful photo-3d Detroit members  (Paul was DrT's personal photographer
  during the awards ceremony that followed...)
- A quick Realist camera repair lesson at 2:00 am (try looking for the moon
  to adjust the infinity of the rangefinder!)

And much more!  

Paul finally admitted that he needs to spend at least a week to see
everything that needs to be seen at DrT's house/3D-Museum. Next time!

PS.  During Paul's exciting visit I neglected to keep up with my email
correspondence.  Please stay patient and you will get a reply soon!
