Robert Lunsford's recent column on the AMS website pointed out that even
negative reports for the October Capricornid (OCC) Shower could prove
valuable, so I thought I'd go ahead and send this to the list. I made an
attempt at observing it from my backyard at home Sunday evening. Conditions
weren't ideal.

air. 58°F, Humidity 87%, Wind NW 3 mph.
