Peter,

Congratulations,.. I think, ;-)

Maybe AL will create new observing category for you originally coined by
Bud Abbott and Lou Costello : "Natscherly".

I remember in the old days of TAC, 7 years ago, of actual dry new moon
cycles during winter months. These past few years have been dreadful.

Now comes the review and approval phase from the Rose City Astronomers.

Best-
-Bill
