    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    What time is this supposed to be? Eastern preferably? Haha. Also they make it sound like it will be the easiest to see on the west coast, how will it be here?

    hopefully tonight the sky will be crystal clear.
    if so,
    i'll be watching the darkness fall apart twinkling above us all:)

    "What should I pack for meteor watching?

    Treat meteor watching like you would the 4th of July fireworks. Pack comfortable chairs, bug spray, food and drinks, blankets, condoms, beer, weed, plus a red-filtered flashlight for reading maps, various sex toys, and charts without ruining your night vision. Binoculars are not necessary. Your eyes will do just fine. "

    but most of all don't forget the beer....
