"What a wonderful day!"

Well, it's starts sort of like this: I Just went to cut the hole for
my focuser in the wood-cutting place (finnaly I can finish working
without anything in my way, BUHAHAHA!!), and I was hitchhiking my way
home. Suddonly I hear someone calling me. It was someone who works for
my mother, and she and her husband were on the way to my town, so in
the middle of the way, this worker told everyone in the car that I'm
building a telescope. Then, one of the hitchhickers said: "ha, I
grinded my own mirror a long time ago, but it's not worth the time
when you have internet, TV, and computers". Then this worker's
husband, told me that he works in the favorite field for ATMers:
Working with mirrors. He really understood what he was talking about
(focal length and stuff), and he told me he had an 8" f/6 mirror. Damn
it, I'm lucky. He's mayber giving it to me for free.

Also the 6" f/8 mirror I own now was given by Ira Kahn, one of my best
helpers in building my current telescope. Man, I'm lucky...

La la la la la la.. I'm soo happy!

Thanks, Asaf.
