Hi Faith! (Cygnus_x1)

I just popped over to your website ( here ) to check out the TSP pictures - wow, nice writing style and wonderful pictures! It's great to finally see what all of our friends look like. And Alvin - that is ONE BIG SCOPE ! ! !

Good Seeing!

And it for sale later this year. I'm the process of procuring a 32" f/3.6 mirror. Will start contruction at end of summer and hopefully have it complete by TSP '07. It will be a lot shorter and much more compact than the 30"
