Tis' the season to remember Utah Astro Gallery and Cynthia Blue
It's the day after Christmas and all is quiet in the house; not a telescope is slewing, not a photon is watched. Your wallet is empty and your credit cards are just about maxed out. The wife or SO is out shoppping the post-Christmas sales; so I slumber in my cap catching a quick winter nap. When deep in my rest, my conscience started to give such a clatter. Who did I forget to thank in all this holiday banter? In the season of holiday giving, you might want to consider adding a donation to the Utah Astro Gallery and Cynthia Blue, who has selflessly kept the gallery going for some years in part apparently using her own gear. There is a PayPal donation button at the top left hand corner of the main gallery page: http://gallery.utahastronomy.com/main.php which links to another donation volunteer activity of Cynthia "Utah Collies". If you do not have a PayPal account, PayPal will also process any major credit card without setting up a PayPal account. If the 27 gallery members each donate $20 at a 75 percent participation rate, that should gross Cynthia about $400. I've thrown in $25. Merry X-Mass, Happy: Boxing Day - Hanukkah - Eid ul Adha - Kwanzaa - HumanLight Day - Festivus-for-the-rest-of-us, etc., etc. etc. - Kurt _______________________________________________ Sent via CSolutions - http://www.csolutions.net

I didn't know they celebrated Roman holidays at Hogwarts, Patrick. I fired-off a few bucks to Cynthia a couple of weeks ago. Good reminder, Kurt. On Dec 26, 2007 5:24 PM, Patrick Wiggins <paw@wirelessbeehive.com> wrote:

And Saturnalia! I should put a hex on you. :)
I'll sweeten what I've already contributed on next pay day.
