Tom Fly said, "For anyone who's able to record such a transit, it's vital for later analysis to document the precise location (latitude & longitude, to 4 decimal places if possible)." Then in the NASA article I read, "If you want to get inside the path of totality, try using a GPS receiver to guide you to the listed coordinates." I again want to say that a GPSr (r = receiver) is a very handy accessory to have. I use my Magellan a lot. It easily gets me to within 30 feet of anywhere. Congratulations Tom! We are fortunate to have people like you that make predictable, visions that would've gone unnoticed before.
