Anyone going to watch? I always am interested in Astronomy but always forget about it. Going to take the girlfriend to the back side of Big Bear and make a night of it. Should be pretty awesome though!

Watched one a few years ago, very disappointing. What they consider a "shower" is 50-60 per HOUR. That's one per minute...boooring. I get more excitement watching fireflies.
