[ATM] Moulded Mirror comment by ANY telescope maker

["Russell Jocoy" <russjocoy@hotmail.com>]

    To all,    The "moulded mirror" comment in any advertisment or listing 
from any telescope maker is just mumbo jumbo saying that this glass disk was 
not pregenerated from a machine.. This glass disk was moulded with the 
determined "f" curve onto the blank. Of course we all know how accurate this 
curve needs to be..., well beyond any mould known to man.  I don"t care if 
you mould it, generate it, sit on it, you will still have to grind it, 
polish it, and figure the surface. It is totally ridiculous to think that 
any mould could come close to a surface that could reflect a wave length of 
light close to what is needed to focus to your eye with any definition..
