Subject: [Chaos-l] Difference In Lunar Eclipse?

I was pondering this while walking the dog this morning ...

Was there any difference between the way the moon looked this time and
during the lunar eclipses of 2007 and 2008?  I saw Neil DeGrasse Tyson on a
couple of news shows saying he was interested in comparing the color ... to
see if dust in the upper atmosphere from the volcanos in Iceland and
Indonesia made any difference.

I'll have to dig up the old pictures from 2008 and see if I can see any
difference.   It might have been more "coppery" (more orange) this time ...
