I am having difficulty opening the link, however I do have some experience with the "Night Sky" My astronomy professor made us all buy the DVD. Pretty cool DVD.

If a man can't find the North Star, he might as well stay inside at night and cry.

Does he have to stay inside and cry even if it's just an overcast, cloudy night?

What about if he tries; but, can't find it during the day, either?

I guess all of us here near the Southern region of Florida are all weeping... ... That is until we bust out with our nifty shiny gadgets!

Never fear MEN!!!

WoodsCustom has the answer.

If there are no stars out where you are from or its cloudy. Use your compass or wait until sun up. It "USUALLY" comes up in the East.

If it comes up in the West, Just take another shot of your Mushroom juice and try again tomorrow.
