I think this is the first TV commercial I've ever seen that uses "real" telescopes (not department store junkers) in a realistic setting. I'm glad I drive a Toyota. :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGosTkosR8I patrick
Aloha Patrick That Toyota commercial has been running out here for at least a month, I think I saw it the 1st time just after Christmas. A great way to sell cars IMHO. aloha Rob
That commercial has been playing here for at least the past month or better. I was going to mention it but "spaced" it off. Quoting Rob Ratkowski Photography <ratkwski@hawaii.rr.com>:

Yes I have seen it as well. Its amazing that Hollywood actually used the real thing and not what they perceived people would think is the real thing Bob Bob Moore Commerce CRG - Salt Lake City office 175 East 400 South, Suite 700 Salt Lake City, Utah 84111 Direct: 801-303-5418 Main: 801-322-2000 Fax: 801-322-2040 BMoore@commercecrg.com www.commercecrg.com -----Original Message----- From: utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Patrick Wiggins Sent: Saturday, February 16, 2008 2:23 AM To: utah astronomy listserve utah astronomy Subject: [Utah-astronomy] TV commercial with real telescopes I think this is the first TV commercial I've ever seen that uses "real" telescopes (not department store junkers) in a realistic setting.

I remeber the first time I saw that commercial I made the comment to my wife that "finally a commercial that shows someone using a telescope the right way" usually they show someone using a Newt that's pointed at the floor! drives me nuts. Howard --- Patrick Wiggins <paw@wirelessbeehive.com> wrote:
