Well, since most of us whom follow this thread can easily be described as, ahem, *fresh*, I suppose it makes sense in a twisted, BEOTS-gang-like sorta way 
It *does* make it easier to follow tho, that's for sure..
So, while we're being FRESH:
Just when IS BEOTS this year?
Gotta start planning (since I'm missing seeing many of you at NEAF!

I didn't say "fresh gang thread" Dave. 
We are leaning towards having the BuckEye on the Sky (BEOTS) star party June 15 thru June 17. We realize that Father's Day is on June 17th, but this seems to be a good target date.

Sounds fantastic! It's on my calendar and I will look forward to seeing everyone again for fun under the stars and wonderful company.

Hi boys and girls! How's everyone been? I know I've been MIA for a long long time from the BEOTS threads so I thought I'd stick my head in and say hello. "Hello!" 
Don't know if I'll make BEOTS, though I will try. But I'll see a few of you at NEAF next weekend! 
Hugs and kisses, Steph

Hi gang! Diane, that's even better! June 22nd is fine by me too! Check out my new gear. Got rid of those stinking electronics-buggy Meade forks. Those forks were wonderful but when I get "No Sensor Board" error messages, I get a little ticked!!! I sold off a bunch of gear to get hold of this Astro-Physics AP1200 (now discontinued by AP) for one heck of a great deal. Works like a charm! Waiting for a nice night to start testing the imaging processes again. I have it working with my pc's in the observatory already.
