Once that no longer satisfies you can talk about aperture fever
Not so long ago I read an article from a very wise man.... he explained how appeture fever starts. Every time he upsized, he could see a new feint fuzzy and just had to, had to, see it, so he would get bigger apperture, and then he would spot something new that was feint with this new and bigger apperture, and then the process gets repeated over and over again.

Knowing this evil & self destructive journey now, I can quite happily look at a feint object and say "I don't really give a rats", I will just simply imagine/pretend/exagerrate about what it is. 10" is as high as I will ever want to go with this in mind.
See.. there is a cure for aperture fever after all - it's called "just don't go there" pill!

That all being said Geoff, I will race anyone to the front of the line to have a look thru your scope. Though then the fever will start up and I will have to search for this post to get my sanity back. Hey, I never said there was a complete cure!
