What's wrong with you guys that you do not see the obvious.

The fridge has two cupboards, both of which are cooler than the room.

I was alluding to a comment about one of my school mates who was a little like Rupert's Ricky. My schoolmate did not understand the difference between the two cupboards in the fridge, and the impact that had on how long you could keep stuff in them. He once kept some meat in the less hard one for so long it got green fur, and he still set out to prepare it for eating.

Near Coleshill, where the producer of the Beatles used to live (he died a couple of years back) a woman in a SUV was irate because I stopped on a lane with both my car wheels on the bitumen, as close tot he side of the road as possible, to allow her to pass, which would require her to run her passenger side wheels onto the grass at the side, with her driver side wheels still well on the bitumen. That was too off road for her. Seemed to be missing the point of her SUV.

Most people have no idea how wide their cars are.

No, no, Scotty, thank you for the flowers but all the honour belongs to you this time

. The processing of this wide field image is excellent!. It shows these fine dark whispy molecular clouds that I know are hard to dig out in a Bortle 4 image with a bit more than 2 hours exposure time. And the stars and colors are also very nice!

And comming to that tutorial question .... I was asked myself today in another thread to maybe do one. I would like to do another tutorial but I had already tried to share some of my ideas and techniques but had to realize that it is hard to do that and that it is questionable if somebody else can profit. Maybe when I have retired

That movie came out 11 years before our youngest son was born, it's always been his favorite movie.

Our AC went on the fritz last night, it's 80F and humid inside, too warm for me, our guy is coming midday.
We plan to replace the whole system next spring, if it can wait.
