Delete Auction?

Posted By Randall Payne

I have an expired auction that I want to delete, but find there is no option to do that. Can it be deleted for me or is there a way I can do this, but am not recognizing?

Number of Ads?

Posted By Randall Payne

I renewed my account last month at the 'green level' and received enough ads to my total to reach 85. The green level should receive 100 adds according to the information I've seen. Is that correct?

Florida Crocodiles

Absolutely excellent photography, John. I lived in the panhandle for many years and alligators were quite common. As an aquatic biologist we were always in their vicinity, and likely wading near them much of the time collecting biological samples. About this time of year one could hear their mating calls; unnerving at times.

Hi Darrell: I am so sorry for your loss. The good news is y'all obviously had a great and loving relationship. Cherish those memories and keep them close. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

My most used telescope is the Takahashi FS-152. Love the fluorite doublet refractors.

8mm Ethos

John: For that telescope focal length, I've found for "general" viewing an eyepiece of 17 to 14 mm(+/- 1 mm) is going to be your workhorse ocular.

Enjoy,
Randy
