From "The Weekly World News" -
Scientists at the University of Chicago have discovered that the use of a bouncy-bounce increases both visual acuity and the ability for the eye to adapt to low light conditions. Dr. Barely Quacks comments, "For the amateur astronomer, 15 minutes on the boucy bounce several hours prior to observing proves to be equivalent to adding about 25 percent to a telescope's aperture. Longer periods on the boucy-bounce result is only a slight gain over this." Several companies are considering marketing variations of the bouncy-bounce to amateur astronomers, according the the article, and one has been installed at Star Hill Inn, which caters to amateur astronomers.
So there is method to their madness, and the kids will have a great time too.
Clear skies, Alan
