Subject: Perseids - educational efforts

Hello,

At the Visnjan Observatory (Croatia, Istria), we are observing Perseids, as
a part of the annual Visnjan School of Astronomy. Unfortunatelly, we had 
terrible clouds at the time of the maximum. Despite this tragic event, 
we are not discouraged. I will send all of our data in a few hours. 

Thr meteor observation group (as a part of the Visnjan School of Astronomy =
http://astro.visnjan.hr/vsa) is prepearing a poster and a report for the end
of the school. If you could send me ZHR reports for the last 10 days I 
will be most grateful. Then we could construct most of the curve. 
Observations from the USA are the most welcome.

Look at this as a excelent educational effort to enlarge number of
meteor-observers :)

Best regards,
