Why thank you Nicholas...but your latin seems a bit rusty today...I hope you meant "mare" as in "Mare Tranquillitatis"...I don't think there is a Maria on the moon...atleast I hope not... eek

Sorry Nick...once a teacher...always a teacher...please disregard if it was a typo... wink

Hey Scott, Michael, Russel and Saifudeen...Thanks for taking notice and the enthusiastic critiques... smile

Sorry Robert, got you this time. wink Mare is Latin for "sea." Maria is the plural. Hence- Mare Tranquillitatis is "Sea of Tranquility" and when I say "you captured the maria very nicely" I mean that you captured the various seas on the moon nicely (I wasn't referring to one in particular).

Maybe next time... rolleyes

Ah...and so you are correct young grasshopper...it appears that in this case...the student has become the teacher...just what every educator worth his salt hopes for...excellent work Nicholas... redface biggrin

But why the heck aren't you in school you young wippersnapper...and if you are...what are you doing online instead of using your time more productively?... plotting

...nevermind asking me the same question...I had a doctors appointment today... razz
