The BA bores me. He could do so much more with his life (advertising and promoting), but he doesn't. :-k

It should be deleted. Its inappropriate. Such a comment should have either been in the forum, emailed, or PM'ed. Any comments made here should have something to do with the actual article.

While I completely agree with your sentiment, Animal, how exactly do you know this?

Funny, I thought that this BA guy was a working astronomer. Isn't that enough? Why would he want to get into advertising or promoting? That would indeed be a waste of his time.

Oh, his presentation is excellent. He's a very good presenter. Why he doesn't sell himself more is beyond me. He should!

I think the issue is, sell himself to whom? The general public, or professional astronomers? He may well be doing the latter, I wouldn't observe that...

Yes. Yes, you're right, Candy. He is the BA. And I'm Santa Clause. RAF is the Easter Bunny.

Lance is God. But don't tell anyone that; he doesn't really want to prove that he exists, or he will disappear in a paradox.

You are so good. You should get a medal.
