Well, I have a public outreach event for some high schoolers at Biosphere 2
tonight, looks yucky although the forecast says mostly clear after dark
(clear above the cloud deck?). But, at the risk of attracting area wide
wrath, I picked up a 10" tube dob from storage on Wednesday, that I rebuilt
over the years, for transport up to Colorado Springs for the grand kids. It
sits laughing at me in the garage. But, nothing NEW about it; just brought
it home from the storage lot. OK, blame me.

Skippy Sky and CSC call it a bust for all of us tonight.
Bob and I were wired to join you guys, but "you can't fool mother
nature."
I just want to know who bought the new Eyepieces?
