I'm going to go out to look for it. It's a new moon, so black sky.

Me too but ... I can't figure out what time! Some people told me 11pm tonight Eastern Time.... The article from MSNBC above says something different... 3 or 4am? or something!!!???
I'm sooo confused! lol
If it wasn't going to be so chilly tonight, I'd get a blanket and just lie out there in the yard and look up at the sky... then whenever it happened would be fine! *smile*
If you can figure out what time better than I can, SLD, let me know, OK?

I was going to try this time frame on msnbcbetween 3:30 and 5:30 a.m. EST
usually I'd be sound asleep, but I was gonna set the alarm.
I can't play hooky tomorrow though I'd like to.

Thank you! Wonder why people have told me 11pm tonight? Maybe they're in a different part of the world and I just didn't notice...
Yeah, I should be asleep then... with my luck, I'll sleep instead of having my usual insomnia and be wide awake.
If the insomnia hits, though, I'm going out to see it! (if it can be seen from here)

I didn't wake up. I fell asleep early and forgot to set the alarm to 3 am. Did you see it Doreen?

On the facebook page, it says:
"Start Time:
Monday, November 16, 2009 at 11:00pm
End Time:
Wednesday, November 18, 2009 at 4:00am
Location:
The Skies of the World"
So who knows whether that's accurate but if so, maybe we can try again tonight to see them while we're still awake!
It doesn't say where in the world these times are.
