Joe-

No pictures of big fork equatorials needed? With a very pretty girl standing
beside scope in each picture? Only "GEM"s? Do you mean "German Equatorial"
Mounts? The kind whose massive counterweight can run into as you're walking
around in the dark, and run into you in that part of your anatomy (you know
where) with such painful consequences? I sure wish you needed some beautiful
pictures of a big, beautiful fork equatorial mounting with Katie in each
picture.

I showed a friend some pictures of the big rig with Kate in the snapshots
and I asked him if he thought she was a beaut', and he said: "Who- the
telescope or the girl?"

I'm sure you will glean what you need from the GEM fans out there, Joe- just
pulling on your string a bit-

Davey

(Included URL where you can find Kate, just in case you have second thoughts
about excluding fork equatorials- and I have dozens more photos, different
views with Kate in each picture, here on the mouse-machine)
