Chuck, You are too modest. Although I agree that there were others who played a significant roll I doubt that I would get any disagreement from anyone that if Chuck Hards had been taken out of the equation there wouldn’t have been such a hi-tech, beautiful tube and mirror assembly as what exists today. --- On Wed, 2/11/09, Chuck Hards <chuck.hards@gmail.com> wrote: From: Chuck Hards <chuck.hards@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] SPOC 1 meter To: "Utah Astronomy" <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Date: Wednesday, February 11, 2009, 10:46 PM Jim, Bruce has always been the center of gravity of SLAS telescope making efforts.

Patrick, I think it is cool that you guys had enough knowledge amongst yourselves to have designed and partially built such a cool scope back in 75. No doubt you guys could have finished it if things would have come together.
On the other hand, the one you (plural, as in you, Bruce, Chuck and others) did finish is way cool.
