From Painius:

So i've decided to continue discussing
astronomy in my favorite newsgroup.
This is my way of fighting the evil that is
being done here... by making progress in the good.

Ah yes, "it's better to light a candle than to curse the darkness."
What's a good astronomy-related subject to toss into the
ring? How about the meteorological dynamics sustaining the great red
spot on Jupiter? What keeps that sucka goin' anyhow?
oc

And i wonder, too, just how long that sucka's been goin'?
Or if science even *knows* how long it's been visible on
ol' Jove's surface?

Also the related stuff Wally's posting about... something
about a second red spot? Is the Jupiter "disease" on a
spreading kick? g

happy days and...
starry starry nights!

Seeing through my telescope,
With the skies I can elope,
Clean my lenses, check the slope,
Skies may be our only hope.
