I’ve posted videos and stories here before, and I've done that here today. The intention of posting these videos and stories is
to inspire you to go see next August’s total solar eclipse for yourself- or to
spread the word to others (especially those who live in or near the shadow
path).
This video is an interview conducted by the Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation with David Makepeace. David is a Canadian filmmaker
who saw his first total solar eclipse in 1991- and has been hooked ever since.
Since that day, he has seen 15 total solar eclipses all over the world.

Not everyone becomes addicted to seeing multiple total
solar eclipses as David has, but you can hear from this interview why it’s
worth traveling to the path of totality at least once in your life! Since the one next August happens relatively close
to home- why not consider making a trip to see this one?
Here’s the interview: http://eclipseguy.com/videos/cbc-radio-canada-interview-2006/
Listen especially from 2:00-3:51- at the end of that
sequence, he uses the words “emotionally overwhelming” to describe the sight of
totality. A total solar eclipse is not just for the astronomers- everyone
should experience one!
