Re: Messier 110 Submission
And thanks to JT and his OCD for fixing my spastic finger action. Perhaps I dozed off while typing it and shot off that extra one!
Michael and Andrey, thanks as well. While I have not earnestly set about to re-observe all, I have re-observed some in the course of chasing galaxies with the 17.5" at the dark site. I think it might be fun to try it with the 10x50 binoculars from there. I can see several naked eye and have seen several through the 8x50
Hopefully they will ressurect the Southern award here as well.

Re: Messier 110 Submission
It's time for you to get off your keister and submit the paperwork for your bling. I know you've done it, you've just got to spend the 5 minutes to prove it.

Re: Messier 110 Submission
And I was oblivious to it until I saw Mark's reference. Then I looked more closely and saw my flub in his quote of the original title. Then I too had a chuckle!
