You know what would really be cool? (Strong hint to Tony F. about a possible S&T publication ) An URBAN sky atlas. It could include DSOs observable from urban/surban areas, with stuff like MUCH better coverage of double stars, variable stars, carbon stars, and stars of interest for other reasons (Bernard's star, for example.)
The Pocket Sky Atlas labels many, many carbon stars and double stars. How about just using it and ignoring the galaxies?
