Yeah it will now be a last-minute decision for me Allen given the forecast for Raleigh is 70% cloud cover and Enfield a solid 46%.  I think if I make the 3-hr RT I'll just bring my DSLR to demonstrate simple wide-field astrophotography and prove that stupid commercial on TV is Hollywood staged!  (you know, the boy/girl story where she enjoys the starry sky and moves away so the boy camps out and images with a DSLR to make a time-lapse all-sky video then he emails to her - ridiculous!  Reminds me of astroporn on the side of telescope boxes at BJ's warehouse tonight!  Cool commercial though!
