Membership support notifications are flooding the classified listings lately... It makes more difficult to browse though the listings to see the actual ads. I am wondering if they can be filtered out by default from the root 'Astromart Classifieds' category and moved to a separate new category?

Thanks

I thought I had seen Jupiter's GRS a number of times ..... but now I realize I didn't.
What I saw was the larger cream-colored oval within which lies the great red spot.
I'll have to try again now that I know.
What's your experience sighting the GRS: any tip as needed magnifications or anything else?

Well, it is sunny today, but it was not for the New Moon. So this month is a dud for imaging. I expect the next 2-4 months to be just a bad.

Decided that I had to find something to do during the off season as well as during the month when imaging is not reall feasible.

I had a couple of bicycles and I have ridden them a bit, but the pain in the butt from the seats as well as the arm, wrist and neck pain, made riding much less fun than when I was young.

Began reading about recumbent bikes and trikes. They have a upright seating and no pressure on the hands and wrists as do the normal bikes where you are leaning on your hands and they absorb the bumps. Thought about it and figured that I had to give it a try. I bought both a two wheel and a three wheel for me and a three wheel for the wife. She needed to get out more too.

Got to admit, this is much better, more comfortable and I can ride for 20+ miles with out any pain or discomfort, just get a little tired.
