[Gogglist_pub] my version of aura goggles instructions

[Tom Beauchamp-Arnold]

Mark,
	Thank you for your version of instructions.  I am planning on
previewing the PranaView instructions in this forum, so I really appreciate
the feedback & help.  

	I think our different versions are closer than you think, although
there are a few points where we do differ.  I'd like to discuss those points
& see that I understand why I should make these changes.  

The first point I'd like to discuss is the length of exposure.  

You recommend a maximum exposure of 45 seconds. My recommended maximum is 60
seconds, so really we are not that far off.  

I have done scores of exposures of that timescale using the PranaView UV
protection with no apparent eyestrain. Is there a compelling reason to
reduce the maximum from 60 seconds to 45 seconds?

A related question: do you think a shorter sensitization is *more effective*
than a longer exposure?  This is of course something I will try myself
tomorrow if the day is sunny.  So, a 15 second exposure is actually better,
or perhaps the exact equivalent of, a 45 second exposure.

thanks very much,
tom
