Thank you very much for your input! I was beginning to think the only 
reason I saw it so well was because I already knew what to look for. My 
brother can't see these things (and thus provide input), unless the 
effect is reversed. It is much easier to cross your eyes that it is to 
relax them, even though crossing your eyes puts more strain on them.

I will make this my priority after Christmas shopping, which I will be 
doing tomorrow.

I think I learned with the 'nose to the paper' technique. That was back 
in the mid-09s.
