Carl posted: Those short videos are Awsome. I actually have the Meteorite Men on my DVR and have watched it several times . . . . Is there a reason you are not selling it on video yet? Dear Carl: Thank you for those very kind comments. Sorry I was slow in writing back. I was too busy laughing at Mike Farmer's post claiming that somebody other than him was making the meteorite world look bad. That's a bit like Stalin complaining that there's too much violence. Anyway, regarding your question. Since our show is still being aired on a regular basis, there are no immediate plans to release it on DVD, but it is something we hope and expect in the future. And I'm pleased to report that there are many other exciting plans for the future of the show which will be announced in due course. Hopefully those who enjoy learning, meteorite science, and adventure television shows will continue to watch and enjoy it. Those who prefer to sit on their extremely large backsides and libel their betters will, doubtless, find some small pleasure in that too.

Re: [meteorite-list] Perseids Tonight
Now I should also say that it may be tomorrow night for those of you who live ahead of Universal Time, in the Eastern Hemisphere... As I write this the date and time is 00:20 UT on August 12th, though the local time here in Tucson is 17:20 MST on August 11th, , so the standard peak is still 18 hours away, during the daytime tomorrow... Yes it can be confusing, which is why astronomers use UT (Universal Time) so we don't miss events because we live our daily lives on local time... -- Richard Kowalski http://fullmoonphotography.net IMCA #1081 --- On Tue, 8/11/09, Jan Bartels meteori...@online.nl wrote: From: Jan Bartels meteori...@online.nl Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Perseids Tonight To: Richard Kowalski damoc...@yahoo.com, Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Date: Tuesday, August 11, 2009, 5:16 PM ...that's it !!.I'm lost.

Hey Tracy, where are you in Hawaii? Felicia is pretty much dissipated into a tropical depression, and it was sunny and clear in Hilo earlier. Another challenge besides looking for sucker holes in the clouds is the glare of a waning gibbous moon that'll rise after midnight ... just as things should start perking up for the Perseids. gary On Aug 11, 2009, at 2:35 PM, tracy latimer wrote: We are under the remnants of Hurricane Felicia.

Re: [meteorite-list] Perseids tonight
Yeah, the youth may be gone, but the rest is not t bad, well, if one is able to live it that way (.which mustn´t necessarily be true for anyone, btw)! Thanks Doug for sharing this! Your German is excellent, how did you manage to find this little Peter Alexander clip of 1958, as compared to good old Perry Como´s tune? Hope life is good for you in Mexico, and you´re still going strong, and hopefully find some and some more fallen stars in your backyards... Best, Alex Berlin/Germany [PS: YOUTUBE is fine, just dug out some old film from the Boogie piano masters Albert Ammons and Pete Johnson, along with Lena Horne!] Charming, Doug, indeed.

[meteorite-list] Perseids Tonight
Dear Listees: A reminder for skywatchers and night owls that the annual Perseids meteor shower is expected to peak late tonight/early tomorrow morning. From UtahSkies.org: Time for the annual Perseid Meteor Shower. The event has been going on for a couple of weeks already as skywatchers have seen a dramatic rise in meteor counts. Well, you ain't seen nothing yet. The Perseid's peak very early on Friday morning (8/12). Highest counts are expected between midnight and first light (5am). If you're under dark, clear skies, you could expect to see upwards of 100 meteors per hour for a while. More info: http://www.utahskies.org/solarsystem/meteors/perseids/index.html We've been experiencing heavy rain and storms for several days in Tucson. Hoping for clear skies tonight.
