Thank you

I never look up, but last night I listened to your episode on my way home from work. You inspired me to up and see if I could locate the moon. It was just about sunset, and the only thing that I could see was one absurdly bright point in an otherwise gray sky. My first thought was "Oh, that must be the north star," since that's usually the first one to show up. But then I realizes that I was looking South (roughly), and the sky was brightest where the light was coming from, so it probably couldn't be a star. Right about the time that I was wondering if it could have been a satellite, you began to talk about the inner planets being visible, and appearing near the sun. From your descriptions I guessed that it must be Venus. I even got my binoculars (well, monocular, since a lens fell out) out and had a look that way. A quick search this morning verified that it was probably Venus. It was fun, and you inspired it, so thank you. I can't wait for the next installment.
