Everyone,

I assume most of you saw an e-mail I sent to one of the astronomy 
graduate students at NCSU.   Well, she answered my questions, and I'm 
thinking about going down to Raleigh and helping her out on Wednesday 
night.   She was specifically asking if folks from CHAOS could bring 
their "big" scopes (not sure if it will be worth bringing my bigger 
scope) so if anyone (Michael?) wants to bring out their big dobs or 
other kinds of scopes, that would be great!  I could use some help 
getting the OTA on the mount!

There will be light pollution (the site is north of the RBC Center) so 
it's not really going to be the best for observing ... but that's not 
the point.   The point is to help foster interest in astronomy ... 
especially in students.   So come join me if you can.   And please let 
me know if you plan on coming so I can tell Letisha ...
