Subject: [K-list] Eclipse Dream

On 1999/08/04 00:32, Martin Thompson posted thus to the K-list:
I was back at school, having to take all my lessons all over again,
starting with my first day at primary school, complete with sitting on
tiny chairs. One child/colleague said that he might buy a programmable
calculator to help him with his work, and I thought that I might sell
him mine, but was afraid that I might need it myself. I could remember
me thinking such thoughts as his on my first day too.
Later everyone was outside to watch the eclipse. I was at the top end of
a park I lived near in my childhood, watching with crowds of people,
yobbos (boisterous youths), all sorts, all cheerful and many rowdy, as
we waited.
I watched the Moon race past the Sun on one side, just occulting it
slightly to make a brief partial eclipse; then it zoomed by on the other
side, covering the Sun slightly more, and so on, back and forth, going
from lower right to upper left each time, on the right side then on the
left side alternately, covering more of the Sun on each pass.
On my left was a Native American man, a chief/wise old man type, and on
my right was someone else, also male. The chief was looking at the Sun
directly, and I was concerned that he would hurt his eyes, so I gave him
an eclipse viewer (special darkened glasses for viewing the eclipse) and
he squinted through these on and off instead, although he wasn't all
that careful about shielding his eyes, he was at least trying. I don't
remember using them myself, but the view was as if I was using them:
that is, I could look without harm to my eyes, and it wasn't too bright
for me.
I returned to watching the Sun myself and saw the Moon zoom by a few
more times, covering more of the Sun each time, and then, finally, it
came to rest making a perfect eclipse. The Sun's corona sprang out, and
everybody cheered. I can imagine the music Thus Spake Zarathustra/2001 A
Space Odyssey for the feeling although I don't think I heard it in the
dream, it fits. Fireworks were let off and a big display began. I was
concerned that the yobbos would start throwing fireworks about, but that
was just me thinking; it didn't actually happen.
