Santa left me O'Meara's books on the Messier and Caldwell objects. What astro
gear did Santa leave you?

But elsewhere the stars were still young and the light of morning
lingered: and along the path he once had followed, man would one day go
again."

Hi Bill:

Some new eyepieces (plossl sets to use in the Denkmeier), and some odds and
ends like a new Polaris Setting Plate for the U8 (mine was several years out of
date), a computer control cable for the NS11 (already had the computer cable to
use with HcAnywhere, but wanted the other cable as well), etc.


Peace,
