supposed to be happening till 10, though its practically over now.

we didn't even have a complete lunar eclipse here - we're too far west. STL only saw it completely in shadow for a couple of minutes.

well, as I was walking out of work, there was just a little (<20%) of the moon covered, and that was at 1900
