Thanks!
Hi Andrew,
oh...that was yours? I didn't know that! [smilie=bad-atmosphere.gif]
Anyway, great talk on the eclipse....I think the highlight was that lady squealing away [smilie=crying2.gif] ...saw a similar case that night from a girl who was looking at Jupiter through Elton's scope...Hope your back is better.

Its reallie a nice event. Went down 1/2 way thru my Exercise at PLC (i change to nite shift) Saw remus (putting on weight just like his scope) and carol. A friendly guy, i forgotten his name, very nice came up and said hi to me and also had a good talk with matthew mike. His sharing is wonderful.

The guy that share the eclipse is very funny. (sorry i got poor memories of name) Somethings i reallie think astronomy people reallie had that sense of humour, even thou i found most are pretty serious looking people. So that event reallie surprise me, also that very 'interesting' host that guy about the lucky draw, haha.. seriously.. i think that do attract some gers to the cuteness of him.

The Dr that gave the speech about the unknown things that we dont see in space, he kept it simple and yet very informative. It scary to see and know wat we dont know.

Lastly i like to thank anyone and everyone who gave me a wonderful experience at Astro 2008. Thanks =)
