i shouldn't say this out loud, but i was really hoping we would get lots of storms today with lots of rain - i want the air cleaned and purified with no more bushfires, no drought dust, no unsteady atmosphere....

the other sad thing you do when the seeing is beating you - you go to fancy ccd camera supplier sites and looks at cameras that can download data via fibre optics and have a 6gig image camera that is cooled shooting at 120 fps - then get the price and cry - they only want 20K for it
