I don't think he knocked 35mm *projection*.   In my read, all Don 
said about projection was that shows go too quickly, so the extra 
information contained in a MF slide cannot be absorbed.  I've been 
urged to run a MF show at 5perf speeds myself.

Don did say a particular club was disdainful of 35mm stereo, but by 
then Don seems to have switched gears to talk about MF versus 35mm. 
Clearly if he showed them a slide of a mountain in the same place the 
original was taken, he wasn't projecting.

Don admits he's no expert typist.  He runs everything in one 
paragraph, which makes it hard to tell when he changes the topic. 
But his images are jaw-dropping, even to those accustomed to the MF 
jolt.

I do find that 5perf and 2x2 shooters get touchy when you compare 
formats.  I'm not going to repeat my MF workshop this year to 
eliminate the misperception that I'm blasting other formats.

But honest, I don't think any insult was intended.
