Will activate you if I'm going out for observation. Also, I'll post the "Warning Order" here if possible. Now, had to wait patiently for the weather to clear... :(

Have a nice day.

Somebody must have bought a really large telescope to bring not only the clouds but the haze! Heh...

Yep... he even reported his first impression, saying he would post pics and we have yet to see any photo. Yesterday he said he may consider to sell it away... maybe the weather will then improve... :)
