Yeah, are any of you coke drinkers and wine sniffers going?
 
BTW, my big OR for Feb. was seeing Lord Rosse's Leviathan mirror at the Science Museum in London last week. Despite being sealed over with a piece of glass and some RTV-like substance, it was tarnished to gun metal grey.
Impressive nonetheless. Must weigh a ton, it's about 5" thick.
 
A pity that the room with all the Herschel related stuff is being remodeled :( but that museum is the best of the best. A must-visit when in London.
