Tom,

While no doubt, your new scope will make set up that much easier, I still
recommend that you take the time to learn the sky. Not counting the whole
"What do you do when the batteries fail?" scenario, there nothing like
looking up and seeing more than  points of light. Kind of like flying under
a hood. You get where your going, but miss the view.

Subject: [AZ-Observing] Celestron SkyScout

I finally received my Celestron SkyScout that I ordered back in December 05
today.  This thing is amazing.  No longer will I have to pester you guys to
help me identify stars so that I can align my telescope. This is the perfect
thing to help the novice, id the stars.  Yea I know, more toys, but I
purchased this one 8 months ago, so hopefully it won't effect the weather.

If anyone is interested, I will bring it to Friday's meeting.
