Perhaps Wolfgang missed the message that started this most recent
discussion of problems at Kodalux.  I agree with his comments
*as to service I have received from them in the past,* but,
viewing mismatched pairs of stereo slides, pseudo slides, and
pairs with significant vertical misalignment (all problems in the
two rolls I just received back from them) is *not* comfortable
in a red button viewer.  I certainly don't think it is expecting
too much for the left and right chips of each shot to be placed
in the same stereo mount.

The sorting of image pairs certainly appears not to be automated.

I would agree if the quality of the service were still what it
used to be.

Condolences on the theft.
