these mysterious foreign Opticians that seem to be showing up?? What ever happened to the little stone age guy that got all of us old guys excited about seeing pictures of antiquated equipment?? (We know we've been in the industry too long when those kinds of pictures excite us!)

Now we have this person from Turkey (?) wanting to know something about web cams and Smart Mirrors. Am I the only one thinking there's some sort of closet sex thing going on here?? If so, that's OK, being old I don't have to apologize for my cynicism anymore. ;)

It just seem a little weird to me! I hope you're all having fun and making money!! :cheers:

Hey you old man with lots of cynicism;),

I have few questions for you.

Is is bad to ask about somthing that you dont know from a person how knows? Was my way of asking that question was wrong?

At last, I am very sorry to all of you seniors if that post was time wasting for you ( very much enlightened by http://www.optiboard.com/forums/show...ight=stone+age thread that i am a nut :hammer: ).

Great Thank you all also because i got great replys and great information. Thank you all.

Thanks,
Touseef

I think that as technology and internet access spreads there will be a growing number of people from developing countries wanting to understand some of the technology thats out there. I just saw the pictures that touseefliaqat posted and man I tell you I would love to spend a week learning how to make lenses like that!

You rock, Touseef, ya little nut. I love this stuff. When I was working at a wholesale lab in the late 80's we still had one of those hanging around. Every once in a while the guy we worked for would do a lens on it, just to show us how easy we had it these days. If you can figure out a way to use this machine for sex, Framebender, I expect an immediate post with possibly video. And no green night-vision shots either!

Yes, us Canadians can be intrusive.

Touseefliaqat,

There is nothing wrong with asking questions and it is ecouraged in the optiboard community. It just might take you alittle time to understand some of the humor.
I think we all enjoyed your post and especially liked to see how you produce lenses in your country. We are seperated by country borders but we are all part of the same craft and field.
