Joe, was it you that quoted out of Neil English's book "Choosing and Using a Refracting Telescope" ? Guy wanted to know why we like long focal length refractors. I pulled that book off the shelf and started reading it again. Good book. Should be required reading for any refractor guy.

In that thread over at CN, I gave a link to Neil's article on CN. The book is on my list, but my credit card has been hemorrhaging lately. To top it off, Neil is working on another book regarding classic scopes, and writing a review for "Astronomy Now" on the ISTAR 6" F/10. Very knowledgeable guy, and I always try to read whatever he writes.
