Re: (meteorobs) Discovery Channel to cover eclipse
Hey, meteorobs...
Am I the only person who thinks Discovery Channel's coverage of the eclipse
stunk? "Witches" and "Shamans" talking about the "mystic sigificance" of the
eclipse???!!! Taped it as I was "observing" by radio.
Tonight it's off to a park near Brandenburg, Kentucky to observe the
Perseids visually, photographically and by radio.
Clear skies...
