Missing eight out of 100, not bad I suppose, a couple I could fix
easily, a couple are pretty tough... noctilucent clouds?!?! I
understand they are getting more common. Have to thank AJ for pointing
out the Gegenshien at Sentinel last winter.
How many pay that much attention to the natural world? How many outside
of the amateur astronomy community could even top 50?
Thanks Joe!!!
