I finally saw Hale Bopp the other night while I was working.  The
nightskys where clear and you could not miss it.  The longer you starred
at it the longer the tail gets.  It was the clearest night in a long
time and the visability was endless.  I also observed it with binocs. 
which really made it glow brightly and extended its' tail.  I watched it
from different locations for about a half hour from 4:40am till 5:10am
when the eastern skys started to lighten from sunrise.  This was viewed
from Monroe, New York early Friday Morning.
