Do NOT view the solar eclipse tomorrow without the special glasses.

Guys, please do not view the solar eclipse tomorrow without the ISO-certified eclipse-viewing glasses.  You could go blind.

Do not allow any children to view the eclipse without the special glasses.  (Wouldn’t a lot of kids just ignore adults’ advice and watch an eclipse unprotected anyway, especially if their eyes don’t hurt when they first look at it?  I was that kind of kid.)

Sunglasses are not a substitute.  I’m a little confused by what I’ve read so far online about taking pictures, but I understand you should not be looking at the eclipse through a camera or a smartphone camera either.

I don’t know why this whole thing has me acting like such a mother hen on the Internet, seriously.  But here we are.

If your eyes aren’t protected, MARION, DON’T LOOK AT IT.
