Hi all,

A previous post of mine got me thinking back to the good ole days...the
1980s..

I was involved in a pretty active local club....lots of friendly people
willing
to share equipment.....many members had 6 to 10 inch scopes....with the
standard being a 8 or 10 inch Celestron/Meade Cassegrain....and a handful
with
the new craze, "big/cheap " Dobsonians, typically 10 to 13 inchers and few
with
the big guns (16 to 22 inchers)......

PLONK!
