Amazon done me wrong

Just a week until I leave for southern Illinois to take in the total solar eclipse. Got an email yesterday from Amazon telling me the eclipse glasses I bought have not been determined safe to use for looking at the sun. The product description clearly stated that they met all of the appropriate standards. They have refunded my money. I don't have to return the defective glasses.

 I am going to SE Nebraska to see it.

I got the same email twice. One for the glasses and one for the lens cover for my camera.
So nice to be insane; no one asks you to explain.

I'm glad there is time to make adjustments. I imagine every Walmart with have the glasses this week.

 If you have negatives from photos, yes that is a bit ago timewise, but if you have any negatives just layer about 3 or 4 of them together and you can use those to look through. At the end of a strip of negatives from your film there is usually a couple of frames with nothing on them and they work fantastic. This is an old trick and I know in today's day and age of computer stuff and video cameras most people don't have film from rolls that are developed any longer. Just a thought for you and for the record i did this myself years ago and watched a total eclipse doing this and my eyes are fine.

I recall hearing about this approach. I've also got a welder's helmet. But the whole family is going so we need a bunch. Found some approved ones on Amazon that should be here in time.

 I saw a meme of glasses made from two packages of gum called Eclipse. Brilliant. Why didnt I think of this sooner???
