I think Jim is heading in the right direction on this topic.
To make it really "fair", shouldn't us folks with 30+ years observing
experience be given some sort of handicap? After all, we have all that
accumulated observing experience that most folks at the Messier Marathon
don't have. This could give us an "unfair advantage". Maybe we should be
required to do the MM with scopes no larger than 4 inch diameter?
