Well, I am still here and I am just heading out for a evening of winter observing. Cold here but man oh man am I ready! Before I headed out I wanted to let you know that I made a free forum for those interested in posting at this link:
http://astronomyforall.forumer.com/
or here is a LINK.
Please head over and take a look. If there is a forum you would like to have added, drop me an email or PM at the site and I can add it. I have some more ideas for it but will wait to see what the response it. It is called Astronomy for All. Main tenant is no political or religious discussions, I will ban for that at a drop of a hat as those discussions lead no where positive. Treat others as you would want to be treated and that means with respect and caring. Keep the discussions non-threatening or what I call non-bullying and all should be good. Well, I have to run, more later.
