[AZ-Observing] Re: Sentinel Report

Uh oh, no smilie in that one, either!

  How about martial arts classes for the club? Have Chuck Norris as a 
guest speaker ;-). Two Nagler 31's on the ends of a stout chain makes
an astro Nunchak's set also useful for binoviewing.

   This is a very interesting thread and I would also like to see more
sites explored north of Route 8, but being a Chandlerite, not so interested
in Hovatter or any other Route 10 west destinations. That position may
change when the 202 South Mountain bypass gets built- hopefully before
Sol goes through the red giant phase.

   I always felt more secure at Sentinel than Vekol. Having more sites
is always a good thing.

I just got back from a trip and so I haven't been able to get involved 
in this interesting discussion about the danger at Sentinel from 
illegals. The solution is simple. All we need to do is have armed 
patrols roving around the perimeter of the telescope field. I would 
suggest they be armed with something as formidable as a machine gun, 
hand grenades (or whatever the current technology is), night vision 
goggles, and maybe a taser. Perhaps observers could take turns doing 
patrol duty (this might be difficult to coordinate at the MM because of 
the short window everyone has to get all 110 objects), and maybe 
familiarity with various guns and other weaponry as well as combat 
fighting could be a question on the form new SAC members fill out.
