Some of my happiest 'alone-time' is spent day dreaming about what the ancients must have thought. - MM
Stop dreaming MM, get off your couch and go to the library and borrow this book...
SEEING IN THE DARK: How Backyard Stargazer's Are Probing Deep Space and Guarding Earth from Interplanetary Peril - Timothy Ferris ® Simon & Schuster 2002
This not a dry book. P.J. O'Rourke said, "Seeing In The Dark is a fortuitous puddle. It gives even the most muck-mired and earthbound among us a glimpse of the splendors above."
...excuse me. Andy is here with my new monitor. I have two more things to add about the content of this book (one, the dates of periodic meteor showers for the coming year, the other, an explanation of the strange phenomenon "moon illusion"), so I will return as soon as we plug the new one up.
