I am very disappointed that no one has responded to your observing night
post. Perhaps the lack of responses reflects the degeneration the quality
of posting on this forum. The level of static to good posts like this one
is getting so high on this group that I seldom spend much time here anymore.

The absence of responses to an observing report does not mean
no one was interested or bothered to read it. Why don't you look at it
from the other side; since a barrage of assortred rude, mindless
replies didn't follow it, it was taken at face value and duely noted.
Unless there is some question or controversy, or it involves new
equiptment, pure observing reports tend not to be targets for n.g
junkies.
