[Vision2020] auroras!!--Offlist

[Donovan Arnold]

Jasper,

I was up at 1:30 AM last night, and went for a walk.
The sky was bright, and I looked up north, but I could
not see much on account of the clouds, so you did not
miss much.

I appreciate your postings and I try to watch for the
stuff you point out.

Take Care,

Donovan J Arnold
