Very interesting view into lens making.

I hope people Look Quick because that page may be gone soon! Great post and an illustration of what's being lost.

It looks like it might be an interesting article, but you have to click through 31 pages to read it one paragraph at a time.

Perhaps that site will be relaunched eventually, using a layout that looks like something from this century rather than a late 90s dialup internet page.

Mine showed as one continuous article, no pages. I was viewing on my phone. This may be related to mobile vs desktop or it could be a setting. It probably isn’t worth figuring out at this point.

Thank you for posting this I quite enjoyed it even though I had to click through the 31 screens on my iPad despite asking the site to give me the mobile version.
