A quick glance at today's cable guide.....
Fast Food----Doc on high speed predators Car Crash---Doc on technology used to make cars safer David Mamet's Homocide---Unusual enrty from Mamet about a cop who becomes a Jewish radical. About Schmidt----Fine film with Nicholson playing a lost widower The Apartment---Simply great writing! Pcycho---The first 20 minutes is like water over a pebble....it just flows, but always exposes new details. BTW, watching an education program IS interactive, unless you're suffering from brain trauma! Yeah, nothing worth Katie or Doug's time! Go clean something instead of absorbing art and info. Stay small minded on your "clean" trawler, Doug. Learning about nature won't wash the Rosarie beads, right Katie? Small people. Small minds. Small lives. RB |

And all better books than movies, that is IF you have a minds eye and
an imagination. Joseph Stefano's adaptation was a work of genius according to Bloch, whose Novel pales by comparison. Stefano, like Serling, was a teleplay pioneer. David Mamet's homocide was written by him for the screen. Try again. RB |

Stroll down to your local Volvo shop, better yet attend a SAE
congress expo and education seminar on the subject. The point is, Josie, that someone with a casual interest need not be in the dark about such things. I can learn about this technology with ease and IF it truly interests me, go the extra step. I'm a long time observer of the sky, planets and stars, but that learning process started with movies and TV. RB |

Nutsy,
You're changing stories again;-------you told the group Astronomy came from your Uncle. who is a Pro You seem to have trouble, for a writer, holding your Story Line. If you like TV & movies, have at it. It your life, you live it. It is strange how health and exersize freaks seem to take pleasure in living other peoples lives. They don't seem to enjoy their own.

Cheers I currently use a Celestron 9.25 for most observing. I use it mostly in PA where the skies are darker. I used to own a Dynascope and a little Questar for travel. My current scope has a computer GOTO drive, but I still miss using setting circles! RB |

Is that a CGE mount and a 9.25 with XLT coatings and a CF tube? Are you doing any photography? Cheers |

BTW, watching an education program IS interactive, unless you're suffering
from brain trauma! They tell you you listen. Calm down, Josie. They're not "telling" you anything. There's an off button. You have control...or perhaps that's your problem. RB |
