I got this in my SFN email box. Thought I would share it....

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?

Looks cool....good get Kil

Be ggod if you could try before you buy though...

Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it's a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.

I agree.

In the meantime, enjoy some photos taken by a member of my astronomy club...
The pics are snatched from http://hem.passagen.se/razvan/
The first is taken with a Sony digital camera through a home made 17,5 inch Dobson.
I took it from his site, and processed it some, to make it lighter.



Or this one, the Sun with flares, taken with a Sony digital camera through a Travel 102 telescope and a Coronado filter.



(Edit: Getting the pic links to work posed some problems, and right now my ISP is having serious routing problems, so I can't verify that the pics show up at all)
