P3D Re: Stereopticon

Ray Moxom (P3D Digest 3601, 17 Nov 1999) has quoted from a
>glossary of terms compiled by Don Wratten and many others:

"The term stereopticon (...)
This term should not be used to describe any stereographic
viewing equipment."

I of course don't want to bother Don & many others with facts,
but they will first have to kill the Taylor-Merchant company
which sells the Stereopticon 707 today and for the last
30 or more (?) years. I bet many of the glossary writers
own one of those book stereo viewers, since it was sold with
several stereo books.

Of course, Adam *should* not have eaten the apple, but he
did, and we have to cope with the consequences :-).
