Hi Frank--It should last about an hour, then we'll walk over and view the
memorial.

2pm!!!!!
I'd like to thanks those of you who posted the links to the stories about
Robert Burnham. I had no idea that there was such an interesting and tragic
story behind the name - I thought he was just another famous astronomer
(hey, SAC is full of those!) for whom it was time to dedicate a plaque. It's
a lot more meaningful now.
I wasn't planning on going to the dedication this weekend, but I probably
will now, if I can make it.
I see that it starts at 2:00 - any idea how long it is expected to last?
Thanks,
Frank

Please call/write me directly if you have any questions or need help with
directions to Lowell. I've made reservations for dinner for 30 people at
Little America's restaurant there. Please bring $cash if you plan to eat
with us afterward to save the waitstaff from the separate checks mess.
Thanks,
