You guys have to think about the future.  One person cannot handle all this
work, especially with APEC's exponential growth.  What's next?

The Stereoscopic Society of America has been around "for ever".  Less work
for the secretary and its members. Backing by NSA.<

What's your point, George?  APEC is here now, and those of us who are involved
enjoy it immensely and can't wait to receive the next packet of cards from
fellow participants.  

>You (maybe "us" soon?) have something good going on but don't see it
it lasting for too long.  What are your thoughts?  Brake it into smaller
sections? (that will hurt the idea, I would think)<

Well, I hope you do get involved, and it does become "'us' soon" -- even if
you don't see it lasting too long.

Honestly, George, I question the motive underlying the negativity of your
post.  It sounds a little like sour grapes to me. Okay, so maybe it didn't
originate in Ohio.  But I'll bet, if you try really, really hard, you can
produce a local shot (in PRINT format, please) that will be a welcome addition
to the fine work that those of us in APEC III share with each other.  In the
meantime, since you are a recognized stereo expert, I'm sure those of us who
do participate will welcome your critiques of our contributions, rather than
your expressions of doubt concerning the viability of the whole project.  

And to Dan and Greg, GREAT JOB!!!  Thanks for keeping it up and running, and
please don't let the negative comments of people who have yet to participate
throw this thing of ours off the track!
