Glenn's Optics Stack

[Thomas McGrath III]

Jon,

I want to say "What do you want for free?" but don't want to seem rude 
since I'm not being so. Some people share great stacks with us here 
that are not intended for final distribution or that are in different 
stages of development. Only people who use the IDE can access these 
stacks anyway and most know these are but samples and such.

If you feel this serious about this than you probably should not 
download any of my stacks since none of them are finished. :-)
