Geminidis echos
      #28618 - 12/13/03 10:56 PM

Well Geminidis are under way and I thought to post a link for those of you who are home due to bad weather.

http://spaceweather.com/

There's a link in the page that will let you listen LIVE the echos from the Geminidis.

If you can`t see them at least you can hear them! I`ve been listening for 15 minutes and I`ve counted at least 20!

Hi,
This is terrific! I got too cold and came inside so this is a very nice follow up. I saw quite a few meteors and 4 bolides tonight. They are moving so slowly you can really track them.

I listened on my laptop until I fell asleep. It's like strange but beautiful music.

As a matter of fact I do! It's too bad I'm old enough to be his mother!

Going to be 26 early next year!

Thanks for the early b-day wishes, guys! Yes, I hate my birthday and I hate thinking about getting older, but they say you're only as old as you feel, and I still feel 21, so i'm good to go for a while! (tell that to my aching back after 10 minutes of shovelling snow... ugh!!! )

I know Daytona Beach and I agree with you...it is not a pretty site anymore.

It's not the age but the mileage that wears on you. I have a 5yr old son and I do stupid stunts to make him laugh but my back or leg or arm or just everything in general hurts. I had to start going to the gym just to try to keep up with him. Being 35 is rough.
