He's just baiting you, people. *Wake up and smell the kill file already.

It never ceases to amaze me either. You have people here who can
run telescopes, imaging gear, and do complicated processing
on images.

And yet... They know nothing about human nature, and people like
min and others can literally get them going at their whim.
I mean, gerald, and min can tweak the noses of some very smart
people any time they want, and the bait always raises to the
occasion. Makes you wonder just how smart they really are lol.

BTW, you and the others here have severely cross posted this

I'd have never seen this except for the bait having to respond.
But I did send it off to my younger son who just got back
from Iraq (2 ID SBCT) and he thought it was a hoot.

There were once very smart people who believed that the Sun was
positioned between Mars and Venus until smarter people came along and
switched the position with an orbitally moving Earth between Mars and
Vneus around the central Sun and then used axial rotation to explain
the daily cycle.

There is another ,less careful group that came afterwards who never
quite reach the level of geocentric reasoning let alone heliocentric
and that would be you,Brian,Chris ect.There is a good reason why a 52%
majority of the audience believed that the Sun goes around the Earth
or rather,they are not familiar between geocentric and heliocentric
reasoning and most of the blame falls on those empirical numbskulls
from the late 17th century -

Min is an astrologer like yourselves but more open about it although I
do see particpants now openly fight for their constellational/
calendrically based Ra/Dec framework.The really smart people will be
those who recognise the Ra/Dec as an observational convenience but
useless for structural astronomy or this cultlike 'prediction'
nonsense.If people are into observations and predictions using an Ra/
Dec astrological framework then I consider them astrologers and that
is the way it is.
