Question about slides, NOT slide mounts!!!

[P3D Dr. George A. Themelis <DrT-3d@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Darren Gunderson asked:   

>I have never had any experience with

And Rev. Robert Linnstaedt replied:

 [snip plug for RBT mounts]  

With all due respect Rev., the question was about a standarized SLIDE, not
SLIDE MOUNTS!  Hence you are replying off topic again... (you even altered
the subject line which originally read "Standardized Slide?" to "re: 
standardized slide mounts"!)

And the good Rev. adds:

>BTW, you can safely ignore Dr. T's strange comments as he was up too

I tried to answer the question asked and I have nothing to sell.  I said 
that if the mounting is done correctly, then all the slides become 
"standarized slides", or a standard slide is not needed.  One can mount
correctly in a variety of mounts, including cardboard.  RBTs might
be "blessed" by you, but they are not the only choice.  The fact that
your RBT-mounted show was flawless while the cardboard-mounted show
needed constant projector adjustment PROVES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING regarding
the accuracy of each mounting system.

Apparently Darren is looking for a properly mounted slide so he can
use it to check mounting on his own slides and to adjust his projector.
He is not looking for a sermon on your favorite mounting medium.  You
are entitled to your own opinion but please make it clear that it is
just your opinion, not Pope's. :-)
