     Still looking good.  It was clear enough to get a good look,
and was naked-eye at the end of nautical twilight.  I first saw it
naked eye thinking I was seeing nearby tau CrB, but in a couple of
minutes I could see both, and the comet was a few tenths of a
magnitude brighter than the star, so mag 4.5 or so is good.
