Hi List,

Geoff is absolutely right about NEAF. If you are interested in
optics, astronomy, or meteorites, it is well worth a visit. The
latest in cutting-edge optics is always on display and every year
Televue has it's famous "Blem Sale" where you can buy eyepieces like
Naglers and Panoptics at a substantial discount. Plus, Alan Traino
(one of the key organizers of NEAF) is a great guy and he makes sure
that NEAF always has interesting vendors and speakers. If you are in
the area, don't miss it.

(and if you go, join the IDA and help keep our skies dark!)

Best regards,

MikeG
