Was not trying to denigrate the quality of the demonstration or the
superb abilities of ISL!

 But I have had to write a barage of custom imaging software myself,
have experimented much in this area, and appreciate the nuances of the
field -- perhaps I was to flippant in my response. It's just that I've
seen so much of this kind of thing already (though not all of it does it
well . . . 10 points for ISL!!!) 

What I was trying to imply, in as few words as possible, is that an
appropriately designed (designed to utilize certain aspects of human
vision)  turing image would make it much more difficult for an
autonomous program to process the information and generate correct
results for an OCR interpreter.

The other thing I was hinting at, is that most turing images in use are
too simple -- in my humble opinion.

PECB

P.S.: Let me reiterate. . . excellent work ISL! ISL IS AWESOME!!!! All
bow down to ISL!  :-)
. . . I mean it; ISL is AWESOME! & so is JPM!
