TMB Monocentrical EP vs. TV Nagler Zoom

Thomas:

A suggestion for whatever it is worth.

Stay out of a mudslinging contest with Valery. He likes it and my guess
is
that you don't.

Take the high road and Valery will hang himself.

Best wishes

Jon,

If you can easily note, Tom was first, who called my name.
I didn't meant specially his SUPER monos. I just told, that cemented doublet
will be the best for contarst vs ANY another eyepiece (theoretically).


Valery:

For what its worth:

From my point of view, it does not matter who casts the first stone. One can
either take the high road and stand above petty quibbling or one can take jump
right in when one feels slighted.

Parents know that when kids are fighting, their first excuse is, "He started
it."

But we all know that "it takes two to Tango" so it does not really matter who
started it.

So, either of you can take the High Road and everything will be better.

Personally I hope you both do.

You are both people with a great deal of skill and knowledge that add a great
deal to this group, I just hope that you both can spend your valuable energies
on something more constructive.

Good advice CLIPPED


For what it's worth, I'm a rank beginner in all this - and Valery's
posts have always had fascinating optical truths if one is willing to
attempt understanding. Second, I have nothing but admiration for someone
posting in what I assume must be a third language (after Ukrainian and
Russian) and doing as well as he does. Third - I agree - Valary does
seem to enjoy tweeking noses; particularly when silly claims are made
about apo-like performance in a cheap achro.

I hope Valery keeps posting; I also hope I can afford a Chromacor and a
Safix, and a set of TMB Monocentrics, and a slew of Naglers, and a AP
6in apo for a quicky scope and a 20in R-C for a photo scope; In the
meantime I'll be entertained by knowledgeable people posting, even if
they're caustic.
