Nice comments, Chuck and Daniel. Although I requested two or three times to be removed from this list, it didn't happen. Now I think I had better not get off, if only to watch my back. You can really tell what someone thinks of you when they say it behind your back. I know I am the one Chuck is talking about because I did join Jay's forum. I never intended to "hijack" a thread and I offer my deepest apology to Jay if that is the cause of any problem for him. I have communicated with Jay and he and I have never had any issues. We are OK with each other, and I don't believe he feels hurt or "hijacked" by me.

They sure seem to have a helluva lot more time than I do. Noise is part of life, for good or ill. But your point is well-taken. And I apologize for taking the bait on that last fiasco. I'm going to ignore OT, thread-jacked posts from now on, or at least make a point to change the subject if I feel a reply is needed. In light of the way you framed it, Jay does deserve an apology from the original replier. I think Jay is still on here, but the guy who thread-jacked him is now on his forum. Funny how these things sometimes work out. _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Visit the Photo Gallery: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php
