The TV is still running a big rah-rah show about it. Oh well. I guess the eclipse glasses scalper price ($250 was reported once) will now drop to $0.10 or so. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ I read about using welgding goggles or welding face shield to view the eclipse aa it occurred and was warned NOT to do it unless under normal light everything you looked at was very dark = that is other objects. Normal welding gear was NOT considered safe for viewing the eclipse EXCEPT for the total eclipse portion. I hope your welding stuff was the really dark stuff. I guess it was otherwise you'd not be able to see the keyboard any more. This one is for electrode welding and you see pretty much nothing through it. It was like looking around in total darkness until ... oh, there is the sun. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ |
