In response to whitebrook@commodore: THE reference for the proper analysis
of stereo movies is "Foundations of the Stereoscopic Cineam" by Lenny Lipton.
zIt can be had from Reel 3D @ 213-837-2368. They are the #1 source of
3D info and paraphenalia. Spotiswoode's work is very dated and partially 
erroneous.

Re errors and eyesprain :>) The two worse causes are divergence of the images
and vertical parallax. Both require very distressing eyes movements.

Flicker is still visible at 100 HZ (50 per eye) but is substantially gone
at 120 Hz. I can't imagine where Scott Nelson has ever seen a 100 Hz. stereo
display, as all Stereographics and Tektronix systems work at 120 Hz.
