Cancer Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Trying to use two telescopes at once tomorrow night, for one, and other more standard end-of-term nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 It's too much work to try fringe-matching the Apache Point 3.5m telescope to the 14-inch Celestron on the top of this swaying building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 ... More funds for a new observatory building? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 There's no room for such a thing, and putting one up here inside the Seattle city limits would be ... monumental stupidity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 So, not unlikely, then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Were it not for general cheapness, yes. Since it doesn't seem to excite anyone's sense of self-aggrandizement, though, I think it is unlikely to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L. Marcus Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 ... Well, there were all these wars, they are surely further up the list ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Well, any war where the wine in the canteens freezes as the troops march has got something going for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 And not water skiing, I take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 On ice, if that counts, but not being towed by anything. Infantry practice being towed by all sorts of things, like snowmobiles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Snowmobiles are another of those things I have never ridden on, and don't have a burning desire to try, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 They're neat. Almost like riding a hog, but it's much softer to fall off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 ... I've never ridden a hog, either. Unless you mean motorcycle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
