How DARE you belittle the great sacrifices so many comets have made
so that you could live you pathetic shallow life!

As strange as it may seem in an astute pertinent way Bert is
correct that if it weren't for comets we possibly wouldn't be here to
study and enjoy their full mystery. And Double-A thank you for your
light hearted post response to Saul for it temporarily lifted my poor
spirits during my deep bereavement over the loss of my beautiful wife
due to the unrelenting ravages of her cancer illness. Your previously
posted info about an owl you saw on your late night or early morning
run is per Indian legend a sign and a way of notifying you that
someone like a known close relative, friend, or associate, is about to
depart. At the time when I read your post it thankfully saved me from
immediately having to tell you and the group of my great loss. I will
not say anything more about this but thanks to you, Bert, Twitty, Mr.
Bohne, Darla, honorary science Officers, and all group members for
your kind thoughts and understanding during my extreme loss and
overwhelming sadness. One can be fearless but can never be truly free
of the pains felt by the loss of a loved one. It's what higher
intelligence mammal sets us apart while uniting us as humans or net
star folk like Dr. Strangebones despite her/his iterated apparent
aloofness. Darla showed human like qualities by stating her/his and
crews great fear of possible loss of brave Sil until I helped bring
them around. Thanks again Double-A and is the dynamic cosmos in a way
alive, a comet, an Earth raging river or ocean, it's all physics and
frame dependent, and from a limited present humans perhaps not, but
from afar per Darla's posted perspective she appears to think so.

My condolences Nightbat, they say time heals but for me I don't think
you ever get over it when a loved one dies, you somehow just learn with
time to cope with it.

All the best.
