We are going to have 91 percent totality, a lot more than the 70 percent totality we experienced in August 2017. Not quite the 96 percent totality we had on March 7, 1970, but I am really looking forward to this. As this is the last chance for me I really hope it is clear that day. We had 94 percent totality on May 30th 1984 but it was pouring serious disappointment.
