Beav your going to go blind if you don't. Everyone is locking up their children and their chickens too. This eclipse must be special. So put your cows in the barn so they don't stampede over the cliff with the lemmings. I'm just going in my bunker watch it online. If the power doesn't go out?? Mac

Can I safely watch the Eclipse through my welding hood? That’s what I did for the last one. And my eyesight didn’t change.

I'll wear my reglar safety sunglasses. It's all overhyped to cause panic and for ppl to profit. Go ahead and be stupid, people please use proper solar glasses or filters. You can get solar eclipse glasses at a lot of libraries for FREE. They don't cost much to buy either. Or damage your eyes if you want. The Sun is nothing to play around with when it comes to your eyes.

Can I safely watch the Eclipse through my welding hood? for the last one I took a 10 glass and a 5 glass , took out the clear glass and with the 10 arc welding glass and 5 gas torch welding glass it was comfortable to look at the sun for long stretches of time. the eclipse before that I was in high school welding and that is exactly what we did , put on gas goggles and then arc hood
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

You can get solar eclipse glasses at a lot of libraries for FREE. They don't cost much to buy either. Or damage your eyes if you want. The Sun is nothing to play around with when it comes to your eyes. You can also get FREE Covid shots (to keep you super healthy) from an industry that makes its money from sick people....so you should get a free shot at least once a week to stay healthy....

Witnessed my 1st total solar eclipse on July 10th, 1972 at the YMCA in Syracuse, N.Y. and a 2nd partial solar eclipse on August 21st, 2017 at Southwick Beach State Park near Henderson Harbor, N.Y.. Nothing particularly good or bad happened on those days but it was a neat event to see with my own eyes. I can still see after looking at it, sort of !!! walleyed

I bought a stack of eclipse glasses online. Checked first to make sure they were properly safety rated. Been handing them out to friends and family.
