No, no, Neil, you don't understand. We are engaged in a science project
here, an engineering trial. Why on earth would you want to introduce
aesthetic or artistic considerations into a photographic discussion? <g>
We have this circular debate over and over and over again, and even from an
engineering POV, the assumptions made here are so out of touch with reality
as to render it both boring and useless... JMOs of course...
