PS: I think that was actually the night you took a wonderful image of M104 and won an award with it.
Ah yes, you are quite right and good memory, photo attached ...I don't feel cold too badly luckily.

It was 2005 and this was the image I entered as a last minute quicky:

It was that night that made me think twice in the future regarding bringing my whole rig to a star party hence my comment to Doug...buuuut I am bringing it all to IISAC in October Woohoo!

Mike
