Wish you were here, Mike. Chris couldn't make it either but Guy and I are giving Fred heaps
He he...ah Freddo, gotta love...or hate...him

No, what I meant was, how can the Milky Way look as bright down on the horizon as it does further up, that is not real...is it? The atmospheric extinction down that low is very heavy...?
