OM has been uncharacteristically absent for a couple of days. Hopefully
the
aliens haven't come to harvest more s.s.h. body parts...

BTW, I visited OMBlog for the first time just now. I'm big on obits, so
the
2005 death roll was a must read, and well done. I had no idea Debralee
Scott had died, and so oddly. She was kinda a babe.

Hopefully all is well and he's just celebrating the Rose Bowl,



He probably is feeling ashamed of himself for attacking me like he did.
I ask a legitimate question about the new NASA space vehicle and he replies
with some childish response. Then I post another question but misspell a
word in the subject line. I post a reply to myself fixing the word in the
subject line but add nothing in the body. He says "a better question would
be "why are you wasting bandwidth." Then on another question I ask he
changes the subject to something about pennies. I tell him he is the one
wasting bandwidth. Then he has the nerve to threaten me with his kill file.
Well, I tell him he's the one posting the stupid things. My questions are
on topic. Then apparently he kill files me. Plus some childish Spanish
person apparently kill files me.

No problem tho - I kill filed them right then. I learned the enjoyment
of kill files long ago. Best way to get rid of the typical poster in a news
group who thinks it's his job to be a the "intelligent jerk."

Anyway, I just ordered This New Ocean and look forward to discussing
some of the thing I read in this book with the well informed people here on
sci.space.history.
