Lots of local fools are going to flock to temples or Brahmin shrines and pray tomorrow, because whatever science says they are still convinced that a demon called Rahu is devouring the sun and that Rahu's appetite will spell doom for Thailand.

'Lots of local fools are going to flock to temples ..."

Still better than all the foreign fools who flock to the bars because, despite what the mirror says, after sufficient alcohol intake, they think beautiful Thai women find them attractive and sexy.

Nice pics from Phuket!

Here in the Northeast the coverage was smaller as predicted and it was quite hazy today (will be burning hot today, 40 C).

The only excited person in the neighborhood?

Me!

Was the only one who had some basic stuff to look into the sun.

Without you would not have noticed anything.

Next total solar eclipse in Thailand: 2070

Edited March 9, 201610 yr by KhunBENQ

Here's an easy way to view the solar eclipse. Take a magnifying glass, face away from the sun, and watch the sun’s light eclipse on the surface of a white card.

Simple, remember never look at the sun directly or you will go blind.

Some on here today say you could go blind trying to look at Uranus with out a mirror.
