Yes jokeing aside at least he tell's it how it is

[lunator]

The only thing he has overlooked is the potential to hurt your back carrying a scope out into the garden. You mus keep your back straight............bend from the knees.

I thought he was genuine until I read:

ALSO, OBSERVING THE FULL MOON CAN DAMAGE EYESIGHT. DON'T FORGET THAT THE MOON REFLECTS SUNLIGHT. IF YOU MUST LOOK AT THE FULL MOON, USE A FILTER SCREWED INTO THE BOTTOM OF THE EYEPIECE.

Up to that point, I thought he was just a blatherskite who did know something about astronomy. Now I realize he's just a blatherskite. Celestron makes a good SN, though, so the scope's probably all right.

Ohh my ..... agreed, what a pitch!.. And what a nasty looking scope! :shock: :pukeright:

[daz]

If my son ever did that to my scope, I'd sell him on eBay!!!!

[The Warthog]

I must say, I rather like the decorations on the scope. Didnt' hurt the optical performance, I'm sure, and it shows imagination and care. Perhaps not taste, but you can't have everything.
