Hi all
For anyone who is interested there is an excellent article in the February issue of Sky & Telescope about the safest way to pack a telescope for long distance travel. This is very useful for anyone who wants to sell a scope over ebay or send a mirror to be aluminised.
Well worth a read.

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.
