Partial in the 80s. I'm going to watch the total this time.

The glasses are going for hundreds and I plan to sell most of mine (I have 11) in 2024 when the next total eclipse crosses the US.

My whole Sophomore year at LSU was an eclipse...or blackout. I can't remember which.

I'm watching now. When. Is it supposed to get good? It's been. Hours. Just looks. Like the sun.

Yes. On the last day of 7th grade in 1984. Our science teacher gave us pieces of cobalt glass to watch it through.

I'll probably end up with retinal cancer.
