Now isn't this interesting Mike .
I don't know if you remember a couple of years ago I was in touch with Fair Trading/Consumer Affairs about the plastic solar filters that come with cheap scopes in an effort to get them banned. There was a thread about it somewhere, but according to FT; after contacting and speaking with "optical experts" and Ophthalmologists the little filters were fine to use
You now after years of using telescopes and solar filters I just feel so damn stupid.

Who do I believe
