Hi all,

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


Snip


But, gawd...it was like pulling hen's teeth to get even a few members to show
up even ONCE! I'd be suprised if over that time period we got even a dozen
folks to check the skies out EVEN once....it was probably more like 6 of em
over a 3 year period.....

Any other folks have this kinda of experience? Or were our club members just
more homebound than usual?


I have a hunch. Your dark site wasn't equipment oriented, so who cared?
If it was a 1.5 hour drive to an equipment demo in a mall parking lot
during a full moon, then you would've had something.
Just my $0.02
