Hi, Rick - one quick erratum to the message I sent you earlier about
the Leonid meteor shower from Saudi Arabia!

It turns out the maximum time is expected (again according to some
models) to be about 19:00UT on November 17. While the closest "dark
sky time" to this peak in the US will be Nov 16/17, the closest dark
sky time for YOU would actually be November 17/18!

Thanks to the ever-vigilant Bob Lunsford for that correction. :)

Lew
