i would have to get up at 5:15 am, then walk to some kind of field nearby to be able to actually see it. and i dont have those fancy eclipse goggles, so i'll pass.

I'm not going to see it. I've seen the last one, and it has to be up to 95 % or so to see actual difference in light intensity. So,unless you have an adapted telescope or so, or those black glasses, you're not going to see much.

Well, I saw the last one, 100%, which was cool in a way. you know, total daylight and then, complete darkness for some seconds. It's cool but we had a cloudy day and there was no spectacular things to be seen of the solar surface or so. I thought it was all overrated. But that's of course just my opinion.
But, enjoy yourself watching it!

doesn't matter really - you should, however, expect to see me at the next total solar eclipse, wherever the hell it is next :)
just look for a friendly, small pixelguy wearing oversized eclipse goggles puffin' on a freshly rolled fatty;
yup, that'd be me :)

nah, there was one in 1999 (not quite sure though), viewable from southwestern/easter europe if I'm not mistaking.
I remember it, the eclipse on these shores was just a mere 10% or something..
