Dear Editor:
Thank you for publishing the articles about the comet! I actually bundled up on a windy, cold evening and sat in Hudson River Park watching the horizon. I didn't see the comet, but with the clues provided by the articles ..... I understand that I was searching the wrong part of the sky. The moon was glorious, and I was happy I tried. If it's clear enough I'll make another attempt.
In our urban environment, with constant ambient light, it's a special treat to view astronomical events. Your column keeps us aware of the rest of the universe, beyond our city.
