Saturday night while set up on the corner showing off Jupiter, one man (only
had 3 people even stop) came over and he told me there is a man with a scope
who sits up down on Ventura Blvd and who has written a book. He had to get
going so I didn't get a title, has anyone ever heard of this guy and/or seen
his book?

Can't help you there, but does that mean you'll become The Other Sidewalk
Astronomer of Rosamond? (And will you get Noodles or Nothing?)

No one else out here has the force of will to set up, no the man and some
gal where at the ice cream place and while she was getting her car he came
over and told me about the guy and his book. Whoever it is, if for real, is
down in the SFV area of Los Angeles on ventrua Blvd, that's at lest 100
miles from my corner. I was just wondering if anyone had heard of this guy
and the book he supposly has written.

Wonder if it could have been John Dobson (he doesn't have to live in LA
to set up in LA...)

Don't know, I wish the guy didn't have to split so fast, I wanted to get a
name from him. Oh well, NBD, I just figured I'd float the question and see
if it sank or not.
