What goes around comes around!

I was going thru my emails today to get your address to send the puter, and from almost the day i joined this forum asking silly questions, there have been emails from asimov, pictures of eq's, masks, ask Lee Andrews this question!! Make sure you get that and the list goes on, from day 1.

I'd say we are even

Good to see people helping each other instead of living our selfish and competitive Life's, Goodonya champ ! If a community like this doesn't bring us together I don't know what could .
You know It's ironic to think that some of the most generous people in the world are the ones that have the least !

except our member called wind and his naughty corner partner called cloudy streams.

got mikes 2x and 2.4x and getting lovely visuals with the 12mm all stacked so give me 12mm at 4.8x of mars, but the wind keeps blowing, so i can't image

clouds are hiding saturn, so will give up on imaging an just enjoy the view.

up to the trap to count some stars

John,

How would you like to lend that Lappy to a desperate Toucam owner until you get your TouCam!!!

I'll send it back when you get your TouCam, Honest Injun!!

Well done John! Onya Davo
