No, I'm not done yet. This is too ridiuculous. Note that everyone is upset about the term "geeks", nobody cares that the club can't meet at the planetarium, for whatever reason. The real point of Rolly's article. But we as geeks are world class at missing the point, as demonstrated here today. I would like to state, for the record, that SLAS was started by a planetarium staffer, John Mosley. It has gone through much metamorphosis over the years, but John and a couple of college and high-school kids were the first to meet under the name Salt Lake Astronomical Society. The current club is a direct descendant of that first band of GEEKS. All of us easily fell under the current definition of "geek"..."Chas the spaz, president of the science club"....whatever. We laughed at labels like that, they were used by harmless, uninformed people who just didn't matter to someone interested in science. Nobody cared! (And, BTW that was one of the original purposes of the planetarium in the first place, as a meeting place for amateur astronomers.) Now I'll tell you that while I am not Rolly's source, I know who is, he attended the swap meet. Many of you know him and if you think about it, you'll realize who. Water off a duck's back, folks, get over it. It's a non-issue. A funny musings column. Just drop it already. Or keep talking about it and prove my point, I find it hard to care anymore either way. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - 250MB free storage. Do more.
