sunlight shmunlight... twilight shmilight
I will take heavy duty twilight over New England darkness at midnight

as long as I can dance in the streets in the middle of the night without bumping my wanger into solid objects, I will be quite content

you can call it twilight if you wish
I have learned the phenomenon as loosely "midnight sun"
just what ignorant laymen label it when communicating to others

astronomy degree sounds wonderful, impressive
this allows you the right to be technically correct
but now you make me look silly, and I will have to put the hurt on you, toute de suite
do you work in Arizona or Calif observatory?

I am in the market for a nice reflector telescope for hobby purposes... the kind with a mirror not long tube... can you recommend a nice one in the $150-300 range?

thanks, and I stand corrected most humbly
