[sac-forum] Venus, Moon, Jupiter and Mercury alignment

Thanks to many for the heads up on this alignment and tonight my wife, Pat, and 
I saw this beautiful apparition.  I started at 5:30 and only saw Venus and the 
Moon, which continued at 5:45.  By 6:00 Jupiter was added to the list and 
Mercury started to join in about 4 minutes later.  There they were, along the 
ecliptic, Venus, the Moon, Jupiter and just above a palm tree, nearest the 
horizon, Mercury.  It came and went at first but as the minutes went by it 
became more and more visible.

About this time the phone rings and it is Steve Coe.  I told him, "yes I was 
looking at the alignment," to which he said wait just a second for me to go out 
and have a look.  We agreed it was a beautiful site.

Again thanks to all for heads up, including Dick Harshaw, Jimmy Ray, Tom and 
Jennifer Polakis, sam@xxxxxxxxxxx, Darrell Spencer and Rick Tejera.  Who did I 
miss?
