Re: (SNES) Odd Mars/Phobos Shadow Dance Tonight (and subsequent evenings)

Hi Les,

Thanks for the great tip.  As you have already seen me post, I have a C14,
and could conceivably have a shot at this one.  Unfortunately, it doesn't
look like the cloud cover here in south central Mass. has any mind of
breaking up in time.  I will continue to monitor the skies as dark
approaches, and if things do give me a break, I'll post my success/failure.

Thanks again,



Respectfully,

The Other Les
