Re: [ATM] interesting review of movie on John Dobson



>An interesting review of the Dobson movie:

Guy, thanks for the review.  I just heard about the movie and was wondering 
if I should get it.  I try to collect every book relating to telescope 
making, including a couple that were never published.  And now a movie.

John and I have always gotten along just fine, though people have told me 
that John and I are too diametrically opposed.  If I had to agree with 
everyone's cosmological beliefs in order to enjoy astronomy and telescope 
making and observing with them, then I'd have a big problem!    I enjoy John 
for the force of his personality and his charisma.  I've known him for 25 
years and he's definitely a unique force to be reckoned with.  He certainly 
changed the face of amateur astronomy.
