Re: [APML] OT: Why no imaging recently...

Wish I could say that. Here in Southern Ontario Canada, we've had a nasty winter so far with very
few clear nights and the few clear ones are always in conjunction with -20 Celsius and below. We
have not had the snow falls that Chris is contending with but we've had a lot.

I figured out how to get rid of the snow though - this may be useful to others - you place an order
for a $1000 snowblower and immediately any use for the thing evaporates. It must be a corollary to
the rule about buying new astronomy toys and the clouds rushing in to participate.
