LOL, what you say is true, but I never suggested it as public scope. I was just seeing if anyone on the list would be interested in purchasing the optic. What they do with it is up to them. On 10/6/10, Siegfried Jachmann <sjachmann@certiport.com> wrote:
Think about it Chuck. A 200" focal length, a 16-18' tube, you, up on a ladder 10' off the ground. This would not be a practical public observatory scope. Imagine the liability of having observers climbing a 15' ladder. For a private observatory it could make sense.
