Re: something to take your mind off wwpd.

I did. Using just one hole, the image was more coherent, but still distorted
by the distortions in the shape of the hole. I tried just using the outer
ring of holes, but got nothing usable because at that point I didn't realize
how critical the excluding of unwanted light sources was. I downloaded the
membership form for Parts and I'll join up. I think it's a great coincidence
that WWPH is the day after our get together.
