Look guys, we don't live in a perfect world.  I've been the projectionist for 
the San Diego Stereo Camera Club for over 12 years.  There's a huge range in 
mounting skill out there and I want everyone to get better at it.  However, 
one way or another, some poorly mounted slides do get thrown up on the 
screen.  I just can't sit there and let the audience view a slide with 
vertical misalignment for 10-15 seconds or more.  I will always adjust the 
vertical, even before the focus if possible.
