I chuckled at Rolly's column this morning, but then I usually chuckle or harrumph at his column. I am not his source for this story, but I was his source for the goofiness in small print on the enclosure sent with the water bill about a year ago. I chuckled because I remember attending my first SLAS meeting at Hansen Planetarium several years ago and coming home to tell my wife I had never been surrounded by so many geeks like myself. If Rolly is asked to apologize, I'd be tempted to be his next source, too. I'd tell him of the recent discussion on this list about which planets were visible on October 14, 1918. Hey, I referenced two different planetarium software sources myself, and got different answers. The only reason I didn't check a third source was that the cat was sleeping on my lap and I didn't have the heart to wake him up to cross the room. So I was befuddled and couldn't ring in with an answer. Bob Grant Befuddled Geek
