after reading this caption: "The mesa pictured, north of Happy Jack,
will be the site for the 14-inch discovery telescope..." 14-inch?? $30

On the CBS local news the other day, they called the new telescope a
"14-foot" instrument. This comes closer to the size announced by Lowell.
News people can confuse inches, yards, feet, (forget about meters!) and
miles real easy.
