(meteorobs) precautions



Hi, everyone:

In the recent discussion about precautions when observing alone, someone
mentioned setting up their lawn chair at their vehicle to keep anything
from sneaking up from behind.  I recommend caution with that, depending
on your local wildlife.  When I lived in Nevada, we always set up far
from the trucks, because sometimes sidewinders came up under the engines
for the heat!  To this day I spend as little time near my car as
possible.
