And it may still look ever so slightly blue in real       life. But in you photo, it is not a blue cover.              I can clearly see the pale blue color of the cover.              Very strange that you and NG claim not to see the pale blue color of the       Pegasus cover.              > > I have suggested, several times, that you post a short video of you       opening the cover so that we can see that the introduction is inside. You       post videos all the time on youtube. How difficult would it be for you to       post one more?              I'll consider that.              > > NancyGene has asked why you don't post additional photos of the magazine;       something showing the cover partially lifted, or showing the staple... and       suggests that you have a reason for refusing to comply.              I've posted the proof, and now it's on you and NG to prove me wrong.              Which you're obviously desperate to do.              > > It would be very easy for you to show that the letter/introduction       actually appears in the magazine. It wouldn't be absolute proof, but it would       go a lot farther then the seemingly unrelated photos you keep reposting.              The pages I've scanned and posted are sufficient.              > >> Like I said, the cover may have been blue half a century ago, but it's       not blue any more.       >       > Dockery: No, the cover of Pegasus '76 was and still is a very pale blue.       >       > [/quote]       >       > MMP: Stomping your foot and repeating yourself, even with additional       emphasis, is still not going to alter the facts.              I can say the same thing to you, as the cover of Pegasus '76 is absolutely       pale blue.              > And one of the facts is that on two of my computers, and one of NancyGene's,       the cover shows up as a yellowing or tan off-white.              I don't know why you can't see the pale blue color of the cover, but I'm sure       the color is there.              Perhaps *you* should adjust your monitor.              --       Poetry and songs of Will Dockery:       https://www.reverbnation.com/willdockery              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
