Ah, 
I just love someone who's as cynical as I am! It's certainly a good 
possibility!

Doesn't anybody else sense a story here?  Hobbyist spends $100,000 on 
telescope, dome and related equipment, becomes involved in hobby until 
it occupies virtually all non-work hours and esp. huge parts of nights 
and creates troublesome debts. Hobbyist doesn't notice he hasn't seen 
wife for a couple of days (only a couple??) until process server tracks 
him down in dome and spoils the seeing by turning on a light. Community 
property state means half of everything, including astronomy gear, is 
hers - and she wants cash. Hobbyist ends up with clothes on his back, 
well used Subaru Outback and 8" Celestron; heads for the Southwest where 
the seeing is better.
