[ATM] ATM presentation

[mikell at optonline.net (Michael Lindner)]

My local ATM group is going to be giving a presentation on ATMing next month, 
and we're looking for ideas. One thing we're planning is putting a video 
camera on a foucault tester and showing how a mirror is tested, and having 
some people "walking around the barrel". Any other ideas?

We tried the foucault setup out last Monday, and it was amazing how much 
detail you could see by tweaking the image parameters. Makes me think that's 
the only way to go (plus, you don't have to hunch over to get your eye to the 
knife edge).
