You know, you have a GREAT point, Kim. Somebody from the organizers called me and asked me if we at the Deseret Morning News would be sponsors. In my opinion, he was pretty pushy about that. I was noncommittal, and to get him off my back I said he should send me a press release and we could evaluate it. No doubt sensing my lack of enthusiasm, he never contacted me again. The thought of a news organization sponsoring any kind of news story leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I still haven't heard a clue about the details. -- Joe On Aug 28, 2007, at 9:32 PM, Kim wrote:
Haven't heard of it, but I'm all for it - assuming the details and KSL's sponsorship don't spoil it.

Should we amateur astronomers participate in some way? A special public star party in the city under darker skies than usual?
What are your thoughts?
