I think the moon is already out, so forget about the 8 pm rise time.  Also, 
Frank and I will be showing sunpots and solar flares from 6 to 6:30 pm in case 
PAS people want to view them or in case some of the crowd arrives early. Take 
care, Sam

Oh - and Bob reminded me that the Moon is at just less than ½ full and rising 
at 
P, so after 8P, we'll need to hit targets in the East quickly and then move to 
he W/SW for the rest of the night.
Bring your lunar filters if you want to show the beauty of a half moon.  We 
on't need any blind attendees :-P

 To Terri's request for other than M42 - remember, different scopes offer 
ifferent views and one thing that I really like to do is to allow the folks to 
ontrast - especially between a scope and the binos.
 
 But, there will be plenty to see compared to the Union Hills campus, so let's 
it 'em all!
 
 See you guys tonight.
