Deep sky etches

The past month stirred up the astronomy feeling again, even up to the point that I'm considering the purchase of a bigger telescope (a 8 or 10 inch Dobson seems nice). The etching databases of Regulus and Dog Star are nice impressions of what is possible with those big scopes.

Phonetic Numerals

The Phonetic Numerals system provides a convenient way to remember long strings of numbers. It's really simple: the system replaces the numbers 0-9 with the symbols S, T, N, M, R, L, J, K, F and P. Take a long number (3.1415926, for example), convert it into Phonetic Numerals (MTRTLPNJ), then come up with a phrase using those letters (MoTheR ToiLed a PaN Job.) See? Easy!
