Re: February PUG Countdown
If you take Absolute Zero as the reference point, we're all pretty hot! Temperatures in the universe range from -273 to a few million degrees C yet we "suffer" in a relatively small sub-section of that.

Re: February PUG Countdown
Yes - been pretty hot here over the past few weeks. In western Sydney there have been many days of 40C (104F) and higher. 39C predicted for the next three days, then we might see it cool down to the mid 20s to mid 30s for a while.

Re: February PUG Countdown
I haven't been doing a lot of shooting lately for various reasons, and I'm going to have to go way back in my archives to find anything that conveys a feeling of, or, allusion to heat.

Re: February PUG Countdown
We are indeed in the deep freeze here in SE Wisconsin. Tuesday and Wednesday nights the temp is forecast to drop to -25F (-32C) with the wind chill about -50F (-46C). The high temp on Wednesday will be around -14F (-26C). The last time we had temps this low was almost 40 years ago. And...overnight we had about 10 inches of snow on top of the previous 7 inches.

Re: L-bracket
Thanks a lot for the offer, Stan. But I would like to use the l-bracket already in spring and summer. So I'll buy the Genesis one which can be delivered right away and is half of its price. Wouldn't it be a nice idea to have a Dutch mini-pdml meeting so you don't feel lost in Amsterdam? Perhaps the other Dutch pdml-ers like this idea?
