Ya know, that's really funny. But I'm inspired that you brought up the problem.

Some "slow learners" have a problem with drawing lines on 2-dimensional photos because of the "Parallax" problem. Many of them suffer from myopic vision caused by staring at number readouts on "Trackman" radar machines. For them, parallax is a problem as well as general confusion and a constant sense of being lost in their own surroundings.

For the rest of us, those with open minds and those of us studying TGM and acquiring a taste for 3 dimensional visualization, parallax isn't such a problem.

Do you think that Landscape Artists have a problem with 3d visualization? How about scientists measuring distances between Stars by drawing and measuring lines on a 2D Image?

I don't think that it's too much to ask for someone to develop enough visualization to read a plane line drawn on a down-the-line photo of a Golfer. Unfortunately, some narrow minded people use science as a weapon. Sound familiar?
