    Very cool! An experience you can take to the grave, and a reminder of the magnificence the Creator made for our pleasure.

    Now, I was promised the earth would be ripped asunder by the combined gravitational forces of sun and moon.

    Oh, and zombies. Where the h*** are the zombies? I mean I got the kit down and everything! I was supposed to have to fight off the zombie horde after the sun went out. I'm disappointed. Feel a little cheated to be honest.

    Up in NWI... didn't get any darker than a partly cloudy day.

    As Garfield would say...

    That's what I found interesting. we had a 95.1% eclipse, I was looking at it a saw the moon almost completely cover the sun, but it was barely dim. That sun....it's pretty bright.

    I expected more anti-solar farm people to be yelling about how eclipses make solar power unreliable.

    Drove to Marion and watched with my wife. 2 minutes. Glasses came off and I shouted and embarrassed my wife in an almost empty parking lot. A 99.9 % eclipse ain’t worth a plug nickel. This total one was worth $1 Trillion dollars. I never expected this, greatest thing I ever saw. We were waiting for Jesus to step out and return. Incrediable.
