It's mostly those old style classic stone buildings of Christchurch that have
received most of the damaged. Unfortunately a lot of which will have to
be demolished never to be seen again. But yes there will have to be a look
at current standards.
Cheers,CS

It really would be a pity if people left the city in droves, never to return.
What a difficult combination of circumstances. I don't envy
the jobs of the politicians, civil engineers and architects all
trying to decide how they rebuild a city and the surrounding
region in a manner that resists earthquakes, while still capturing
the charm and atmosphere the city had before the quake.
Cheers, Paul.

My mother was telling me over the weekend people are leaving Christchurch in
droves, an
estimated 65 000+ so far have packed up and left. A childhood friend who has
moved back
to Christchurch from England with his English wife and children is freaking out
and putting
pressure on him to move back to England.
Yes great win by the Highlanders against last year's comp winners? the Bulls.
Didn't see the
match but heard the results.

Just catching up on messages. Actually Rob I'm
secretly rather pleased that the Crusaders
had a win. Kiwi spirits could do with a bit
of a lift, as long as they don't make a habit
of it!!! Highlanders also had a great win against
the more highly fancied Bulls. A very interesting
series is developing. Cheers, Paul.

Hi Judith,
Good to see you back. The observing deck sounds like a good idea.
Cheers, Paul.

Welcome back,
Obsession Scopes pretty much just like my 16" scope. It was built following the
design concepts from
a book called "The Dobsonian Telescope - A practical manual for building large
aperture telescopes"
by David Kriege and Richard Berry who build Obsession telescopes. Fantastic
book by the way teaches
you a heap about their concepts and technics and the reasons why, how. Mind you
I spent quite a bit of
time on the telephone picking Peter Reeds mind on telescope making learning
further variations on
the same concepts. So I guess there is a lil SDM in there too.
If I were asked to choose I think I would have to go with SDM, that boy is a
true craftsman. Once you see
the two side by side you'll know what I mean.
Cheers,CS

Hi all
I've been off air for a while - first away in Melbourne for a conference and
then computer strife. But all good now.
Glen I have no idea what an Obsession scope is but it sounds impressive and may
the skies be crystal clear.
Did anyone watch the show on SBS on the solar system last night? It had a few
scenes at the Paranal scope which looks to be in
incredible country. They were all wearing very very warm clothes - take note
Glen!
And Glen thanks for the link to NGC1999 - was that the one when you asked if
we could see the pink?
I am getting a new deck on the side of the house - its only small but will
increase the amount of sky I can see - still not much but
an improvement.
This weekend not looking good.
Judith

Yes, just looking at the storms on the radar.
You might be lucky enough to have them go
around westwards Rob. Here's hoping. Cheers, Paul.
