Yo, Comet Machholz is out and about; tonight it is close to the Pleiades (it moved up past Orion and through Taurus and it continuing along it's merry way), and it's just a little smudge of a thing but it's still pretty neat. In dark places it's naked eye, but I had to use binoculars (still a very small pair of binoculars) because I live too close to town... But anyway, it's not hard to pick out, really...right now it's a few degrees northwest of the Pleiades.
