Thad,
Is Jim Stamm of Tucson still recognized as the record holder? He was set
up on that same night. Since he is east of Sentinel, "his" young moon was
younger than "ours" was. I will take credit (or blame) for launching
Pierre on a many-year quest to shatter the record for viewing the youngest
moon.
I figure that many folks will be using the transit of Venus as a good
excuse for a European vacation.
