[Utah-astronomy] Re: Green Pointers .

We really don't need Green Laser Pointers, for years I used a large Maglite Flashlight with a cardboard tube over the front to direct the beam. Interestingly enough I also found a Rayovac two C Cell flashlight with a supurb reflector type front lens, after buing one to keep in my car I purchased another and used it like I had the Maglite as a pointer. Also the cost was low and white flashlights are not or will probably never be on the Homeland SecurityTerror Patrol list, but Hey! I do admit that Green Lasers are very Hi-Tec and impress the younger wanabe astronomers at Public Star Viewing events. "Gentelmen ,we don't gotta show you no Green Lasers!" Nato.
