Okay, if the schedule I read is accurate, it began a few minutes ago here in NJ, and we've got about an hour to totality.
Meanwhile, I'm watching the CBC's live coverage on the Web, and it just went total in Casper, Wyoming.
I remember the last eclipse I experienced, a partial when I was a kid in the 1970s -- the reactions at the time were very different. The massive party atmosphere the news is documenting today is just amazingly different from the very quiet, almost somber response and coverage back then.
In other news, President Trump has announced that sinister Alt-Left forces have stolen the sun in order to intimidate good, honest Nazis.-- Bob

Then the horns kicked in...
...and my shoes began to squeak.
