    Hello Opti Board

    Hello, I'm in Canada near Toronto. Are there a lot of Canadians on the Opti board?

    There are also a few former Canadians that show up from time to time.

    All hope abandon ye who enter here

    OptiBoard is a message board for eyecare providers and consumers located in an alternate universe. It doesn’t matter where you are from, now that you have registered we have taken control of your mind. Wrapping you head in aluminum foil will do you no good. Just sit back and enjoy the ride.

    Through me you pass into the city of woe:
    Through me you pass into eternal pain:
    Through me among the people lost for aye.

    Justice the founder of my fabric mov'd:
    To rear me was the task of power divine,
    Supremest wisdom, and primeval love.

    Before me things create were none, save things
    Eternal, and eternal I endure.
    All hope abandon ye who enter here.

    Such characters in colour dim I mark'd
    Over a portal's lofty arch inscrib'd:
    Whereat I thus: Master, these words import

    I often vacation in Canada, in small towns that I can't remember, much less pronounce when I get home.

    Welcome !

    One question...

    How do you guys get your specs to stop fogging up when you go in and out of your igloos?

    Actually it is a good question. I remember when I was a child, walking to school, I had to put my glasses in my pocket and walk to school blind, because the glasses fogs up so badly. Even with a good anti-fog, it was just like ice.

    I am interested to see how Chris' dip hydrophobic coating repeals the fog in the winter while being outside and while on the rink.
