Something seems to have gone wrong here! Actually this is an old thread and I think the count has been goofed up a few other times along the way as well, so I'm just nit-picking.

My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a moral being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute.

Finally tried out my Paracorr last night. Very impressed by it. Feel I got my money's worth.

I spotted it and saw it was a older post and thought I would add mine to it,, looks like gogoplexer was on page two and thought that 52 was the total so far and added his to make it 53.

I took the Liberty of correcting that post to display the correct count.

It might be beneficial for you to take an accurate count & make a new post reflecting the correct figures; then it will be easier to keep track of the count.

yes= 71

No, no
My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man not owning any newtonian below F/6, thereby adding to his own happiness and productivity in the absolute.

You must not have caught "aperture fever" yet. 
12.5" would be my personal limit for an F/6 Newt.

Lawrence S. Quote:
As with most internet polls, this one will not be rocket science, but if you own a Newtonian telescope of F/5.5 or faster (only, and it matters not what type or size, but please do not participate if you do not meet this test), then please take my survey. I will start it out. Each subsequent poster must faithfully increment the numbers for "yes" and "no" accordingly. The below yes and no section is all that should show up in this post from here forward. Here goes. Do you currently own and use a Paracorr?
Yes = 0
No = 1
Yes = 72
No = 30
To use the last "count" if you count verbal responses as 'Valid' then it's probably:
Yes = 73
No = 31
