If they could find a way to fund Radio 4 without it I'd be in favour of scrapping the fee.

With an 8 inch dob, things like globular clusters are going to look granular and pretty amazing in reasonably dark skies. Similar for bright nebula.
But, yes, it's a philosophical question.

Actually, although UK provision is pretty bad, I got 235kW sustained last week in some small charging station off the M4.
The Mercedes CLA seems to be the only model that's significantly better and not totally crazy money.
Or you have a concurrency issue in your production code?
I always thought the reason Toy Story works for adults and children is that the toys are the 'parents': caring for their child, but with the awareness that their job is to render themselves unnecessary.
