Should we be reassessing the VP-8 results (Continues Previous Post)

I asked for it. And I got it, like a left-hook to my jaw. Within minutes of asking on this blog, I got a PDF file from O.K. called An ImageJ presentation showing difficulties of obtaining Shroud-like 3D encoding on normal photographs.
