You guys are funny.

Still, I enjoy looking over the shoulder of two reasonably (or at least apparently) competent individuals as they slap each other around.

We can all thank Tom for setting it up this way.

He was a serious genius.

rd- Brother from a previous life. I too can forget. I Apologize just like Apollo under orders from der ... mainly because words mean nothing to me accept for "word" as it actually describes itself.
Yes Ayn Rand was a genius as are we all before they put us in school.
Chang Tzu or some brilliant sage said the greatest gift is to be considered weak and stupid and perhaps have a hunch back as that will keep you from being conscripted by the military and it's tributaries. If one has vision one sees the slave/ slave- master system for what it is. All one needs is a roof over ones head and bread and the kingdom of god will follow. I forget the genius who said that. We are stimulated to see division.
It takes being a lying hypocrite to make any more money than one needs. "To lead- one must lie". Thank god for Grigori Parelman the man who knows he controls the universe just like you and I do. Read P.D.Ouspensky? David Bohm, Karl Popper, Walter Benjamin and everything else and it all points to different realities to each of us.
I was raised o think that it was positive to make money. I was taught that being rich and famous was positive. I thought if I ever came up with something it would be appreciated. I did . You see the response I get. Some day people will see the value in pareidolia and how the money system hid it under me a old uneducated (artistically) so no one would find it. One can make stinking money doing anything except being a pareidoliac. Money and God are anti-thetical. So is money and pareidolia. I thank god. I want no more money than I absolutely need. Excess money is sacrilegious. We are 100 trillion in debt to 3 people. You dig it? This machine even doesn't recognize the word spelling of PAREIDOLIA. Got gave me the greatest gift in the world = pareidolia. The gift of quiet appreciation in the art world.

I just looked at 10 images at random on the HiRise website and they were all 1 x 1 binning, ~26cm/p, images approx. ~80cm resolved (approx 32 inches). Yes it's true about the fact that there are images that have been combined into super pixels, but as a general rule they do that for a purpose, and they are usually not concerned about the slight loss of resolution (if we took a picture of a car, would it matter if there were 7 million or 9 million pixels? Probably not).

So, the simple fact of the matter is that there are probably thousands of 1 x 1 binning images from the HiRise, and yet we're still squinting to see what in fact you claim you see. It's actually gotten quite boring.

Oh yes it will!

Like I said, the regions I have found of interest (and most do not) are either 2D images (no stereo companion) or have one file captured at 1 X 1 binning and the other 2 X 2 binning which would resolve to around 170cm resolution across (70").

The problem you are having here frankly, is that you are still looking for an image that resembles a car or a familiar "thing". Shame really as anything that looks potentially artificial, you pass right on bye. You need to both open your eyes AND your mind.

But the dissonance you are experiencing is a super safety net of sorts and is quite understandable.

Btw, that yawn of yours....sounds scary...make sure you put your hand over your mouth like Mommy said to ok? Just kidding of course Rich [:o)]

<b>[pareidoliac] "I Apologize ... mainly because words mean nothing to me ..."</b>

I have to be the hard ass in situations like this, because it's a part of the job of being a God. (Not that I don't enjoy the role, he he ;-)

***

So I have to ask:

Is it possible for you to find a way to say it that sounds less sincere?

***

Richard - if this is acceptable to you I'll accept it as well. But I recommend he be required to word it differently.
