The use of VLBI has about the same intellectual substance as
photographing the wandering Sun analemma and these people are not only
wasting time with their wayward assertions, the connection between
planetary dynamics and terrestrial effects will continue to suffer due
to this intolerable notion.

I look at all these doctorates at the IERS and they can't seem to get
that right ascension techniques are homocentric but they assume their
telescopes are tracking an extra-galactic source as the Earth turns
but it takes one person with common sense to see that the telescope
turns around its own individual axis and besides,it is an extension of
the 24 hour AM/PM system which meshes with the Lat/Long system.

You do not have to talk like you are about to lay an egg with these
things and a blizzard of abbreviations are not going to disguise that
a great injustice prevails at the expense of not just astronomy with
humanity itself.If a concept that hinges on VLBI is throwing up 1465
rotations in 1461 days ,as this is what right ascension adherents
truly believe,then chant voodoo all you will,it began with a mistake
and has now grown into a monstrosity that nobody wants to touch apart
from what is discussed in this forum.
