  • Letter: A Life in Slides
    To the Editor: Gary Andrew Poole’s article about his family’s slide shows (“A Couple of Beers and 140 Views of Yellowstone,” Rituals, Nov. 21) forced me to extract our ancient Viewlex projector from its distant shelf and plan an evening of entertainment for some unsuspecting neighbors. My Philadelphia childhood in the 1940s had many such evenings, not as exotic in content, perhaps, as Mr. Poole’s trips to Yellowstone, but plenty of the Jersey Shore. In fact, my parents so enjoyed seeing their slides that they finally just left the screen and projector up and ready. One Thanksgiving weekend, my mother asked guests to bring along 25 slides that they were thankful they’d taken. It was a long evening, but it was rich with variety, and there was a lot of applause.br/br/span a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=83e114dbebc04d47855363b9c112d69du=http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/05/travel/escapes/05letters.html"img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=83e114dbebc04d47855363b9c112d69du=http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/05/travel/escapes/05letters.html" border="0"//a /span
