Next message: Bill: "Re: Backyard winter sextant observatory?"
Sorry Jim, I don't think there is any simple answer to the cold problem.
Even in far warmer climes generally it can seem pretty grim just before
dawn. Shivering is the body's answer, but the body just doesn't consider
what this does to the steadiness required! Its just another movement
complication to be added to all the others. Which brings us back to the
desirability of examining a series of sights to determine the best data that
can be extracted from them.
Am certainly glad that frostbite is not an issue around here.
