> I can definitely back you up on the central star in the Ring Nebula last night.  It is the first time I have ever seen it ... in my life.   Thanks for giving me the opportunity with that nice new mirror you have.    I think it was a combination of that and the better-than-the-CSC-predicted seeing last night that made it possible.  I was continually using my 13mm eyepiece in my scope, which is more magnification than I usually use at Medoc.

> And not to be picky, but the "lobed" planetary nebula we saw last night was NGC7027 ... thanks to John Raymond for pointing that one out a few weeks ago in an e-mail.   I was amazed that in addition to seeing the lobes and the dark line between them, you could actually see the shape of the larger lobe (just like in pictures).   Absolutely incredible!
