    That's my hat! Someone stole my hat!

    Actually, it looks like a very short Maksutov. Did you see the central
    obstruction in that thing?

    While surfing around on the E-Bay, I bumped into this item for auction---"a
    night vision telescope", E-bay item #2974438369. Take a look at it. It's
    about the shortest larger aperture refractor that I've ever seen. Talk about
    portability! Rich N., check it out. I bet even Astro-Physics can't make one
    this short.
