Well, here's my second attempt at emailing tables...
I did them in Excel first and than cut and pasted them into my email..
Hope they go thru formatted and tabbed. I decided to not to observe
last night.. After being sleep deprived for 30+ hours, and after a night
great rock & roll last night, I just didn't have the energy.
Below are my data for my night of observing
with Bob Lunsford..

I hear Rainer from IMO will be in San Diego soon and I look very forward
to meeting him and discussing meteors.
Bye bye for now.
