For those watching / lurking ... I hope I've offered insights into optics and the issue of physiological response. But, in as much as it is crystal clear to me that Heron's A : B presents a difference in contribution from the optic ... it is equally clear that the participants that routinely engage me on the matter are not here to learn, nor do they legitimately care to even try to learn nor discuss the actual merits of the optics, even when presented with far superior resources than my limited understanding offers.
Even when presented with other sources of optical expertise far beyond those of us in the forum, the incessant and perpetual refusal, is unending. Everything from folks calling me "dense" to folks wanting to "vomit" ... really nice, guys ... shows your superiority on the subject really well.
I've tried to stay above the noise and share with fellow FM'ers (active participants and lurkers) as much perspective on the subject as I can. For those wanting to further their understanding of the subject, feel free to PM me, anytime. For those whose mission in life is to be perpetual dissenters, naysayers, disrupters, interlopers and general antagonists against their fellow FM members trying to have a legitimate discussion ... well, here again, we have two camps.
Since we reached the crossroads of a (what I was hopeful was legitimate) a feigned request for additional insight, and a complete rejection and aspersions of "vomit" regarding my suggestion toward a legacy of optical engineering insight ... my genuine sincerity to advance the understanding of the subject is not being reciprocated in a like manner.
I'm certain that folks who have been "watching" readily recognize the difference between those aspiring to discuss the matter in earnest vs. those who have a different agenda. Nothing new here, just an acknowledgement that I appreciate those who have been watching from afar, and hope that I've presented at least some nuggets of useful insight / perspective for some of our members.
Granted, you'll never please 100% of the people, 100% of the time ... but, I've given a significant amount of time, effort and attention to the matter. Hopefully, it has not been 100% in vain ... as I have nothing but the highest regard for Fred and his site, and our fellow members. It has always been my great appreciation for Fred and his site that propels me to continue to contribute, and to do so above the fray of "dense" and "vomit".
I hope everyone has a great day.
FM ROCKS !!!
Fred is the best.
Thank you. I know it takes a lot of time and effort on your part, but rest assured many of us find benefit in your contributions to this topic. 👍🏼👍🏼
