where else were you supposed to argue pan&scan (wrong) vs widescreen (right) with people in 1998 :colbert:?

e: and how much divx (the lovely circuit city drm-ed, timebombed dvd competitor, not DivX ;) the codec) sucks?

e2: or trade 5 cases of canned hormel chili for a dreamcast (serious inquiries only)?

How many people on earth privately own a 16"+ reflector?

edit: one John Dobson story is that he made a reflector telescope to bring on tour to various public parks and the tube was so large that he slept inside of it.

ew boring, astronomer is a way better job.

my point was that i've seen lots of big scopes too, i have astronomer friends. but a 16-inch lens would not be remotely the "smallest scope i'd ever seen"
