Hi Gang:

The last couple of issues have been late, so this one is early. I also
had more time to work on this issue than I've had in a while. I'm
pretty proud of it, frankly.

This time:

"The Night Everything Changed" (Uncle Rod). A WO UWAN review.

"Uncle Rod's Cracker Barrel" A new editorial-type feature.

"Midwifery" Birthing a new amateur with Martin Howell.

"Whatever Happened to S.A.A." (Uncle Rod).

"The Lego Observatory" Scott Smith.

"An Open Letter to E-mailers." Lee Paul. Good sense tips.

"Don't Buy Trouble" (Uncle Rod) Observing sites and security.

"Not a Moment Wasted" Nasa's Space Place column.

"My Back Pages" Plenty of cool Rumours for this hot summer issue! TAKE
A LOOK HERE FOR HOT-OFF-THE-PRESSES INFORMATION ON THE NEW CELESTRON SE
SERIES ORANGE TUBES (CHINESE MADE)...

The first of Scott Smith's Astro-cartoons!

How do you get it (it's free)? Just go he

Please note that back-issue downloading is not currently working. I
expect to have this working again over the next week or two as I
migrate this page OFF AO-Hell. ;-)



Peace,
