don't like painting

I was thinking about repainting Mom's telescope this holiday. If it looked like we had gloomy grey skies, I was considering dismantling, stripping, and repainting her old Edmund reflector tube from the gloss white to a flat black.

But after reading Jeff Beish's article I decided it wasn't worth it. He intimated that for reflectors, there were many other factors, and that tube paint colour was really a matter of personal preference.

That's good. I don't like painting.
