Oh yeah, they had to sign a extra rental clause that states that any damage as a result of the eclipse it will be repaired at the renters expense.

TV coverage here was AWFUL.
Most of the images I saw on photo forums where much better.

Being the wrong side of the pond there was very little to be seen direct here - even if could coverage hadn't been 100% I think we'd have only managed 4% coverage - quite a long way from totality
