Re: Can't Find An Object.

Mike Holloway Dec 10, 2006

Hello. 'provenance'. I actually had to look that one up. There are
times in every amateurs observing when a glitch, unknown, different,
artifact or possibility something new shows. This is not my first
time and don't want people out on a wild goose chase looking for
something that is probably, possibly not there. I have submitted
this and will wait to be told if my imaging for 20 years has
developed something new to correct. This will be my first time to
submit anything. I hope it is real but the information given by
members of this board on and off line have tought me a lot and that
is why I ask for help here. They may not even accept my email sent.
In a couple of days if I have not heard back I will post images and
see but at this time I side on caution.
Thanks, Mike.
