It's not only possible, but probable that one could observe all 110 objects
during the week of March 24-31.

Results
Where's mine? I gave you the sheet with 109 objects observed. Not only
that, the only reason I didn't get 110 was because YOU said it wasn't
possible at the event. Yes, I should have done my due diligence and checked
it anyway, but when the coordinator says it's not possible, why should I
doubt it? I'm a bit miffed.

All,
Below are the preliminary Results of the Messier marathon, for the purpose
of verification of details (spelling, optics, etc). Please do not publish
these results.
If someone with dual membership can re-post this to the EVAC group. I also
need to hear from the Lowell Observatory group (to ask how they want their
awards)
