I know if you go to the watching party they are hosting at UNT, they have free glasses for anyone attending.
I've also heard of people that found them at local 7-11's, at least as of a day or two ago.

Does anyone actually know what the minimum level of light filtration should be to safely view?

From what I read, approved eclipse glasses filter 99% of light rays. Eclipse glasses vs sunglasses

I've heard 13 and up. By 13 and up, I was talking about the welding glasses thing. Shade 13 and up...just to clarify that.

TSC has lens for welding hoods. That's what I would go get. Then return it the next day.
