I wish it were that simple. No, I don't mean that--only that image
processing is not in general the panacea that it's sometimes cracked up to
be--so that a great many image processing papers are in fact bad, whether
Lena and her ostrich feather are in there or not. We talked about that on
last Lena's Birthday, as you can read in Google Groups.

Very interesting stuff. Thanks.

Since it's now officially Friday, and because I still want to have a
conversation about good stuff rather than bad stuff, I'll post a few of my
favourites. We're talking *hacks* here, so I'm leaving out Maxwell's
equations, the laser, and so forth.

Your examples and those by others were also very interesting.
