OK, guess I just didn't check far enough back; I'll look for something else if you want, or someone else can take it if they choose.

do people get out of the passing lane in Cali or Nevada when a car flashes its lights. In Texas, thats an invitation to have someone stomp on theit brakes

Typically when they are slow driving in the fast lane they are on their cellphone or texting, so they don't see the flashing lights. So I just leave on the highbeams until they do.

And I just flip the rear-view mirror (at night) to the "night" position and ignore them. During the day I just ignore them. If I happen to be in the left lane in order to turn left somewhere up ahead, I'm not about to get out of someone's way unless it's an Emergency vehicle (police/fire/ambulance).

Been deleting the LinkedIn invites from day one. No FB here either.

Facebook has Farmville. Farmville is very soothing.

LinkedIn is for making professional contacts. So if you are not in education or on a school board you are unlikely to be getting any requests from me.

Since I don't own a telescope, I just mounted my 12 x 50 binoculars to my camera tripod, capped one side and aimed it toward the sun, then used a piece pf paper behind the secondary lens to fine-tune the aiming then just moved the paper back a ways (about 15-16") to observe the image; I used the same technique to view the earlier annular eclipse.

True story:

I was at a local BK restaurant not long ago and had just placed my order; there was a teenager in line behind me with her boyfriend.
They both looked at the sign for their (BK's) version of the "1/4 lb'er" and she turned to her bf and literally asked, "what's a one slash four ell bee?"

I damned near died laughing, as did some of the other diners and the manager.
