Thanks, Patrick. I checked the Internet and found the comics refer to a total solar eclipse of July 20, 1963 (despite Charles Schultz' instructions, Peanuts is reprinted long after his death). Totality was through Canada and Maine, but doubtless the partial phase was visible in much of the Northeast. -- Joe --- On Sun, 7/25/10, Patrick Wiggins <paw@wirelessbeehive.com> wrote: From: Patrick Wiggins <paw@wirelessbeehive.com> Subject: [Utah-astronomy] Astronomy funnies To: "utah astronomy utah astronomy listserve" <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Date: Sunday, July 25, 2010, 1:42 AM For those who may not have seen these in the paper recently: http://comics.com/Peanuts/2010-7-12 http://comics.com/Peanuts/2010-7-13 http://comics.com/Peanuts/2010-7-14 http://comics.com/Peanuts/2010-7-15 http://comics.com/Peanuts/2010-7-16 http://comics.com/Peanuts/2010-7-17 http://www.chron.com/apps/comics/showComick.mpl?date=20100724&name=Pardon_My... patrick :) _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Visit the Photo Gallery: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php Visit the Wiki: http://www.utahastronomy.com
