P3D DrT's Lectures - Objections, Reply

["Dr. George A. Themelis" <DrT-3d@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In a previous email I outlined a series of articles ("DrT's Lectures 
on Stereo Photography") to be published in the Stereogram, the 
newsletter of the Ohio Stereo Photographic Society.

I will now reply to two "objections" (before they are raised :-))

#1.  Bid deal!  We read about these things every day in photo-3d.  

Fine!  If you can make sense through the endless debate in photo-3d, 
good for you!  :-)  But I think you will find it refreshing to read 
one person's account delivered REGULARLY (mailed EVERY month, one week 
before the first Tuesday when our club meets) in small portions with 
illustrations and pictures.  

#2.  George, why are you wasting valuable resources?  Why don't you 
     publish this series in a widely read publication like "Stereo 
     World" or "Inside 3D"?  And how about the web?

Hmmm... I wonder if anyone asked Piper this question!  Well, I have my 
reasons. I am the Editor of the Stereogram and OSPS Treasurer.  I want 
to publish interesting material and bring in money through subscriptions.  
I want to promote stereo photography in our area.  There are much BIGGER 
names in stereo, much better qualified than I am to write about stereo.  
I am good enough for Cleveland (OK, make it Northern Ohio.... well, OK, 
I can even go all the way up to Ohio, but no further!)

PS. The offer for a free copy of Stereogram 3.1 still stands.  I have 
    only heard from 3 people so far.
