disappointedPosted By Ivan Gastaldo |
Robert, things like that will happen. no matter where you are or what you do...
Yes, it should be cleaned up or deleted, and I'm sure Dave will take care of it...
On the other hand, why be disappointed? Learn to filter what is good from what is not, and keep going... life is too short to grow an ulcer from stuff like this...
Clear skies to you, and all! 8)

As my friends Bob & Dave already said, you are gonna have a blast with that BIG GUN, so go for it, and have fun! 8)
The Orion and the Celestron Dobs are pretty good, you'll be happy with either one... really, can't get much better than that for the money you'll spend...
Clear skies, and Good luck!

Timothy, thanks for the post!
I'm glad you are enjoying your eyepieces... I have the full set of UO orthos, besides their 2" MK-70s the 25mm and the 40mm, and love them all...

How do you do it?Posted By Ivan Gastaldo |
Aaron, even though my scopes are NOT in the league of the equipment that you listed, I can tell you that I was able to purchase my main scope with the bonuses that I got from a great job that I used to have.(that company closed it's doors a couple of years ago...)
Since then, I've been able to get all the "extras" via side-jobs that I do every once in a while... (I've been working on/with computers for the last 26 years, before the first IBM PC came out...) 8)
