Personal Consumer Issues • Is it worth traveling 3 hours to see the solar eclipse?

Mark Twain said “The difference between the almost right word and the right word is really a large matter. ’tis the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning.”

Same with the difference between a total eclipse and a 98% eclipse.

If you care, it's will have been well worth the drive. If you don't, stay home and don't crowd the highways for the rest of us.
The quote I heard yesterday is "100% totality is like going to Disney World for a week, 99% is like seeing a sign for Disney on the interstate."

Far and away the most awesome natural event I have ever or will ever see. A million times better than my expectations.

Plus I only had to drive 15 miles, and it was all back roads with no traffic.
