27mm Panoptic

Posted By Kory Lahue

Ok, my kid got a hold of my 27mm Panoptic and unscrewed the bottom cap, releasing all optics. I have tried to put the thing back together, but the optics keep sliding down the barrel. Does anyone know how to put these back together? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Can anyone identify this?

Posted By Kory Lahue

I believe this to be a meteorite, but need some help identifying it. I found it off the southern coast of Cuba, while snorkeling off of Guantanamo Bay. It was about 30 feet offshore. Its a nickelish material, very, very light. its about 2" long and about 1" wide in the middle. If someone can give me some insight on this, I'd appreciate it, thanks.

Astromart Support cancelled?

Posted By Kory Lahue

Ok...this is weird. A few weeks ago I did a 6 month support. My listings were in red, all was good. Its been about 2 days since I was on the site, and now my listings are in blue. Ive checked the support list, and Im listed as a blue supporter instead of a red supporter. Ive emailed the new contact address, havent heard back....but has anyone else had this problem?

Sky90 first light - M42

Posted By Kory Lahue

Russell,

What filters and exposure times did you use? Ive tried M42 with an 8"LX90 and my XTI, and got nothing like this.

Lance Armstrong

Lance is like Mark McGuire.....a liar. For years Mcguire denied using steroids, then just recently admitted to it. Im a cyclist, and admired Lance for a long time. But the truth has come out, but he wont admit it for the sake of his foundation. One side affect of Lance's actions is testicular cancer, which he developed. He has teammates who are are willing to testify against him, and the USADA wouldnt be going through all this if they didnt have concrete, DNA evidence. Sorry all you Lance fans.......he's proven another loser.....the only "hero" Armstrong is still Neil.

I think he finally figured, why keep fighting this group of Wimps, crybabies, and losers. Just let them have their win. They would hound him 'till the end of time anyway.


If he TRULY was innocent, why not fight for them? He wouldnt just give them up. If you won 7 Tours and an Olympic medal, would you just give them up if you were innocent? Heck no. Lance was caught and he knew it. He gave back the medals before they took them. Guilty. Plain and simple. I used to look up to him like alot of people do, but not anymore. And like I said in my previous post, if they didnt have concrete DNA evidence, they wouldnt be pushing it. No politics.....not everything is a conspiracy theory, just most things. grin
