Agreed on the subjective effects; I did a lot of thinking during the onset about how I would have perceived these things if I were a member of a society that didn't have the sophistication to know about and predict eclipses. The end of the world does seem like a pretty reasonable conclusion if you don't know any better. (I also did a fair amount of thinking about three body problems, heh.) I really didn't expect totality to be so hindbrain-different than a pretty good partial or annular. And yeah, I'll go out of my way to see that again -- I feel super lucky that I got to see this one. I was considering Patagonia 2019, maybe.
