Elsewhere in your reply, you buzzed by my thesis several times but you unsurprisingly refused to set down for a landing. And that's OK. As for your eyeglass prescription, you asked:

"Would you be willing to buy programmable specs that would adjust to external conditions, distance, and rate of change of cornea with time? Of course, you will need to buy a microscope to read the programming instructions on the side in case you misplace the hard copy ones, that is, if you can find your glasses to find the instructions or the microscope."

After reading that I think I'm ready for LASER surgery. BTW, did you by any chance attend the CES show in Las Vegas, and maybe take in a side show or two?

Video glasses keep porn private
Las Vegas, Nevada | 11 Jan 2007

Sleek video glasses that turn film viewing into a private affair went on view at the world's biggest porn show on Wednesday, just after they were demonstrated down the road at the planet's largest consumer electronics show.

Victor Quitoriano of Body Care Resort coaxed passers-by to shut out the bustling activity at the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo by sampling an intimate video-viewing session complete with audio through an ear piece.

He had been demonstrating models of the same glasses at the Consumer Electronics Show a short distance away in the Sands Exposition Centre just a day earlier.

"Our technology crosses over," Quitoriano said. "The videos we showed there weren't porn, because we didn't want to offend anybody.

"Here, it's different. Imagine you can take your porn all over the place; in a plane or a train, but not in the car unless you are the passenger."

The video glasses, made in Taiwan and sold by California-based Body Care, connect to all of the latest video-playing devices, from the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 game consoles to Apple's iPod and Microsoft's Zune MP3 players.

The model being shown off by Quitoriano carry a suggested retail price of $349 (about R2 540) but were discounted for show-goers.

"The only competition I've seen is Sky Mall," Quitoriano said, referring to a gadget catalogue commonly found on the seatbacks on commercial airplanes. -- AFP
