I think Mr. Attilla Danko meant January 4th. But I agree, we should make fun of him about getting the months confused. ... RASC. ... the ... restaurant you...
The Mill of Kintail will be a great place to organize a lunar eclipse event. A dark site makes a lunar ellipse much more impressive. As your moon shadow gets...

While observing the eclipse from the M.O.K would make for much better observing, we would reach *many* more people if we do it from Chapters. It depends what...
Personally (and just personally) I'd rather show it to 250 people at Chapters than 10 at MoK - even though MoK would be a far better view. There is so little...
I agree. If we can show it from Chapters, I'd rather do it from there. My objective in this case is reaching the public (2008-year of astronomy and all that)....
I agree that we will reach a lot more people at the Chapters and that a lunar eclipse event should take place there. But, it does not need to be either or...

I agree Joe - that occured to me too. More than a handful of people at Chapters doesn't add much value other than conversation & exhibiting scope types. Big...
Just a thought! I am retired so I have the time to ponder especially when I am walking the dog. Why not advertize both events at the Friday RASC meeting in...
Good idea. I think Brian McCullough would be happy to let us make the annoucement. However, before we annnounce the session at MOK, the poll should show that...
I agree. It is best not to advertize an event until we know that we have at least 4 OAFs who will attend. Joe ... However, before we announce the session at...

It is great that with the OAFs, you do not have to go with the flow. If you come up with an alternate suggestion, it is not treated as an apposing point of...
Hi Folks, I will miss the meeting this month as I will be spending 3 weeks in Hawaii. I am taking a 66mm scope and an Alt-Az mount so I will be doing some...
Hi Joe, Even without my vote we have the 4 M-of-K OAFS. Can I consider you the organizer - call GO/NOGO,etc? If so, I will pass this on to Nicole and she will...
