******  Is there even 1% of the population that *knows all about
stereoscopic 3D*? How can someone with a bias against it, have ever cared
enough to find out more than a small part of the whole thing? It's highly
unlikely they would try. What percentage of art students graduate with even
a small exposure to stereo photography or stereoscopic art? How much of what
is currently happening and technologically supportive of 3D would a person
with a bias against 3D ever find out about or understand? The 3D industry
itself doesn't know or understand all there is to do with this special
environment. Knowledge about 3D is currently a growing information base
requiring a lot of attention to keep track of.

How much effort do you put into topics that don't interest you?  ;-)
