    Nice!

    You may already know of this, but there’s an exhibition of stereoscopic cards at the Tate in London just now.

    I didn’t know about that, although I’ve seen Brian Mays lecture on stereo cards. I’m perplexed that the Tate says stereo cards are hard to track down. There are boxes of them at any flea market, usually for a dollar apiece. And it’s our earth, not just Pine Bush! Our earth!

    It looks like they are hovering over Pine Bush.

    Can I uncross my eyes now?

    Carefully, one at a time.
