Few hours?  Last year I had my first pulbic projection sessions and
have taken a very concervative approach on this issue.  At first I
was presenting shows with about 150 slides lasting about 50 minutes
or so.  There were always some people in the audience that found this
a bit too much to handle (we are talking about those unfamiliar
with stereo).  Since then I have decided to limit these shows to
50 slides or so.  Also, it is a good idea to spend some time explaining
what stereo photography/imaging is all about, using, if available, just
an overhead projector.
