Keith, if you were able to see the rille in the Alpine Valley, that's quite an accomplishment, IMO.Originally Posted by Keith LawsonStarting to have some fun with the scope. Seeing was good enough (darn high clouds) to allow me to see the central rille in the Alpine Valley on the moon. I was also able to see minor craterletts scattered across the floor of the crater Archimedes before the high clouds ended my observing session. The three primary craterletts were also well seen.
If the seeing is good enough I will do some critical ronchi and star testing. According to "netblue" the seeing should be decent.
Will go for some of my other favorite lunar targets tonight (Plato crater counting, PI Kies lunar dome pit, etc.). Hopfully I will have less high clouds than last night.
Remember these mounts from Richard Berry?Posted By Darian Rachal |
Michael, I believe it's "Build Your Own Telescope". There is a drawing of the mount, along with others, on the cover.Originally Posted by Michael RothschildCan you tell me which of Mr. Berry's books contain the mount design?
Perhaps even share a PDF of the design?

Greg, it seems like anything they touch turns to s**t.Originally Posted by Greg ShafferSo I am hearing reports that she has actually fled the state now amid calls for her resignation and a raid by the FBI on her home. This the same woman who was on the national news back in March of last year bragging/defending her decision to spend close to $100k of the city's funds to bus student protesters to DC over the Parkland shootings in Fla (and Trump of course)....when Baltimore could have really used those funds for its own crumbling infrastructure. Another rabid liberal bites the dust

Rod, I don't think you and many in the Democrat Party have ever come to grip with the fact that Trump was legitimately elected President of the United States.Originally Posted by Rod Kaufman
Continue to deal in facts, unlike you:
"I know there are some people who don’t think this March 27 letter is a big deal. Some opinion people, some opinion people who appear on this network, who may be pushing a political agenda. But, you know, we have to deal in facts."

Rod, that is a possibility, although I don't know whether they do or not. However, the popular vote is irrelevant in regard to the Presidential election, as you well know.Originally Posted by Rod Kaufman
Darian, I accept the fact that he was legitimately elected president but I don't believe many CONS accept the fact that he lost the popular vote...

Mel, Rush has been pointing this out for years. It's coming from somewhere, but it's been going on, in certain respects, long before Rush was on the scene.Originally Posted by Mel Maki
The Dem's best bet, Joe "Folks" Biden, is crumbling. Every week it is more apparent he has trouble putting words together and finishing his sentences. Aren't you noticing he is getting worse? He will not stay in the race. There is no chance he will get the nomination. And the best the Dems can do is phony up some bs about "the letter." 60 Dems wanted impeachment before they saw the report.
Have you seen the occasional 3 or 4 minute news items showing 5 seconds of nearly every news personality on CNN and MSNBC repeating the phrase of the day? Why do 20 people choose a certain day to repeat a 3 or 4 word phrase about a Republican? A phrase that the subject did not use. Strange, almost like the order comes from above.

Yes Steven, Obama was a pathetic joke. His presidency was like stepping in a pile of dog s**t.Originally Posted by Steven Moore
I sure was glad Darian! Trump likes this Country unlike the other President we had for 2 sad full terms recently.

Richard, I'm perplexed that it's ever brought into the conversation. It kind of reminds me of an old Laugh In segment, if you remember the show. Henry Gibson would come on and ask, "Well, what about the water buffalo?"Originally Posted by Richard Davis
Who gives a crap about the Popular vote? Maybe you ought to go learn a bit of history and understand why the founders created a system that is best suited for a REPUBLIC not a PURE DEMOCRACY. Until you lift yourself into the level of educated about the Constitution, the understanding of the founders and what brilliant thinkers they were (especially compared to today's ignorant Democrat fools), and the reasons they set up a Republic as we live under, you'll never get it, and you'll be in the dark Rod, taking your taking your talking points from some of the dumbest leftist pundits out there, the CNN and MSNBC crowd.
They're stuck on stupid.
How long will you continue to be in their orbit?
I don't think I found it particularly funny at the time; I probably thought it was stupid. Looking back, I see some humor in it.
