I couldn't focus my good eye beyond about a foot from       my face until I was twelve and got glasses. The other eye focussed to       about four inches, and I never developed 3-D vision because I couldn't       use both of them until it was too late.              I got fascinated with photography as a child because pictures were so       much sharper than the real world. I never lost that fascination (and       I do still have that f/64 obsession with sharpness).              My wife noticed a few years ago that I don't really recognize people's       faces as easily as I recognize their voices.       --scott       --       "C'est un Nagra.
