For some reason no one mentioned that all the planets were lined up, half to the left of the sun and half to the right. They were all above the horizon except Pluto which you couldn't see anyway. I was stuck in a building and not in the path, but if I had been in the shadow I would have been more interested in the planets. It was a rare oppotunity to see them on the opposite side of the sun. -- Defund the Thought Police
