om...
I would like to publicly thank the very few, very vocal, prolific
anti-SV folks out there in SAA-land and beyond. I am a very happy SV
customer of three years running, and owner of two finely-crafted
achromats. I do a lot of observing with both, and enjoy them very
much.

If it were not for you all, Mr. Maris would have not perhaps improved
on his website appearances, wording and layout, and most importantly,
his telescope designs. Certainly, he may have considered doing so
later on, but your efforts have allowed him to investigate new
opportunities to make his offerings even better for the money, sooner.
Good news for his customers and patrons!

Further, there have been many new SV owners who have commented over
many months that if it were not for all the numerous and intense
exchanges of information here and elsewhere, they would have possibly
never known of Stellarvue at all. With all this free advertising, Mr.
Maris can save a lot on his marketing budget and put it into R&D. Good
news for all of his current and future customers! SV could not do any
better than what you have done for them, in getting the name out
there...

Finally, thank you all for educating us all on what constitutes a good
telescope. I have learned a lot - I am pretty certain others have
also.

Regards,

Darren Hennig, M.Sc.

You are welcome.
