By Mark Strange - Hillsboro, MO on Sunday, June 25, 2017 - 08:50 am:Hillsboro, MO will have over 2 1/2 minutes of totality! 
By Tim Wrenn-Monroeville OH on Sunday, June 25, 2017 - 09:58 am:I'll just punch a small hole in a piece of paper & shine it on another piece of paper.
By Mark Strange - Hillsboro, MO on Sunday, June 25, 2017 - 10:18 am:Tim, that actually works pretty well! St. Louis had a partial eclipse about 20 years ago and I used that method.
By David Dewey, N. California on Sunday, June 25, 2017 - 12:54 pm:Get a fairly large cardboard box, one your head can fit into and still have lots of space above it. Make a head hole, now on the panel behind your head hole, near the "top" cut out a small square and glue some thick aluminum foil over the hole. Put a pinhole in the middle of the foil. On the other end of the box, glue on a white piece of paper. You now have a personal observatory, and can watch the eclipes on that piece of paper, safely.
