yes I am--we are not in the total path, probably about 96%--assuming the forecast for the KC area isn't cloudy. We could not find glasses, so made up the viewer box just like I did as a kid in early '60's. So should not have to worry about eyes as I'll be facing away from the sun. I am going to DVR the program on tv just in case it doesn't work!

Yes, will be watching for sure. We are in the Path Of Totality so can't miss the opportunity!

I must be the only one who couldn't care less about this "event"....

I had planned to watch, since I too, am in the path. But as Murphys law would dictate, I'll instead be at a medical facility with a bag of medicine dripping into my veins. The good news is that they have large windows across the entire facility, so we will be able to see if from the safety of the building.

I hope everyone is safe as I have been hearing horror stories about fake glasses being distributed. (One of our local governments even gave away thousands of unsafe ones and is now having to advise people to not use them)

Thanks for the idea cashs mom I had planned to watch on TV but will be much better on internet, i don't believe there are any safe glasses anyway everyone be careful.

From what I've heard we won't be seeing it in Alaska and it is expected to rain that day with lots of clouds.

NO, am just finishing up having a detached retina fixed and I am not going to take any chances on not being able to see.

We live about 5 miles west of I-25 and 40 miles south of Wyoming border. You wouldn't believe the traffic. It is bumper to bumper. It is crazy. I wouldn't get caught up in that mess for anything. We have 92% coverage here and that is good enough for me. Enough coverage to make the yard lights come on. We have been told a welding hood is also acceptable. That is what we used when I was a kid. If it protects your eyes welding should do it for the eclipse.

I have only one eye. I will not be watching the eclipse.
