Short and sweet and straight to the heart of the matter. I love it! I've headed for precisely the same critical place with mine, but carried on... to what I believe is a highly falsifiable solution!
Most can't recognise the problem let alone the solution. (too many moving variables for the brain!) at least you're half way there already. I hope you'll give it a go (but you'll need to read it slow not scan over it!). http://fqxi.org/community/forum/topic/803
I've even hidden a real donut shaped black hole in the photographs for you to see if you can find. The clue is; you can only see it via the lenses.
You deserve a top score if just for identifying the real issue. (I hope you agree mine may be too). do give me your comments.
Best regards
