I was in a group of people who had to wait for a train to move to
gain access to this site. It was well after sunset when it finally moved.
As I recall I met Pierre at the old Buckeye hills site in 1985. He
always was happy to adjust your collimation and he did so after I bought
my 13.1 " Colter light bucket. He was also happy to share a view through
his telescope. As I remember Pierre would drive to any dark site and I
followed him to some of the best ones. So I think that Pierre would be
happy with the Antenna site or wherever we decide to hold a star party
to honor his memory. It is the "folks and scopes" that make it special.
