Re: Jamie's Official Convention Report

[P3D john bercovitz <bercov@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Paul Talbot asked about Jamie's Sooke Museum stereo exhibit.
It's a large exhibit packed in smallish quarters but for some
reason it doesn't seem cramped at all.  Good layout I guess.
Representatives of most everything 3D are there.  I liked the
contributions from photo-3ders best, to tell the truth.  Jamie
made (or had made?) a couple of cabinets with tons of pairs 
of oculars and a view behind each pair.  So there was no need to 
change views and the cabinets could handle half a dozen patrons 
at once.  One of the best views was something I thought was some 
form of modern art.  Later Jamie told me it was an intentionally 
pseudo pair and I went back and looked again and figured out what 
was pictured.  What fun!  8-)
 
As a side note, the exchange rate is wonderful in Canada.  
My family of spenders attempted to alter the exchange rate 
by themselves but fortunately we got out of Canada before the 
change they must have caused took effect.  Standard name brand 
products sell for the same price in Canadian dollars as they 
do in US dollars.  Anyone who didn't go on to nearby Canada 
from the convention made a _big_ mistake.  B.C. is simply 
too gorgeous.
