It had better stop raining soon. everytime we get extended periods of bad weather my enthusiasm for the hoby moves from observing into purchasing equiptment. If we dont get some clear skies soon, il be spending a small fortune on stuff i dont quite need!!! is this just me or a general problem with astronomers?

How do the fools get the money in the first place?

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.
