When you use this link...

...you will come across one of the people who inspired
Edwin Hubble and his red-shift work. Very much like
Nikola Tesla, Vesto Slipher comes to us without the
many trappings of greatness.

- Henry Draper Medal (1932)
- Gold Medal of the Royal Astronomical Society (1933)
- Bruce Medal (1935)
- Slipher crater on the Moon is named for Earl and Vesto Slipher, as
is
a crater on Mars and the asteroid 1766 Slipher, discovered September
7,
1962, by the Indiana Asteroid Program.


(how many trappings do you want???)

The medals are mildly impressive, "mildly" due to the fact
that while they are a definite recognition, they have been
given to many, many a gifted scientist.

Please tell us what "trappings of greatness" you fell are lacking. Just
because you hadn't heard of him before this morning doesn't mean that
folk
who know what they are talking about undervalue his contributions.

My goodness, John, i hadn't realized that you must be the
president of the International Vesto M. Slipher Fan Club.
Gee, it's too bad, and i'm really sorry, but an autograph is
out of the question!

And the craters on
Selene? There are so many of them that there's probably
one named after you, John! Yes, i'm sure of it...

Crater Zinni

Thanks for making my case! g

Dolt.

Well, so much for civility. Thanks for making Bill's case!
John, you pick the darndest subjects to **** up on.

This is one of the finest self-spanks I've seen in quite a while.

I concurr, Bruce.

These saucerheads have talent, Bruce, no doubt about it.

The Globe must be broke by now.

qartl tells me they never miss an issue of the Weekly World News.


qartl has amazing powers of observation.


Why do you think they read usenet too?


Oho!

Dolt.

Well, so much for civility. Thanks for making Bill's case!
John, you pick the darndest subjects to **** up on.

This is one of the finest self-spanks I've seen in quite a while.

I concurr, Bruce.

These saucerheads have talent, Bruce, no doubt about it.

The Globe must be broke by now.

qartl tells me they never miss an issue of the Weekly World News.

qartl has amazing powers of observation.

Why do you think they read usenet too?

Oho!

Another hint, Bruce: don't ever get into a drinking contest with qartl
and his pals, they are immune to ethanol.

They won't even know I have a liver, Bruce.

Can I have your liver?

No.

But you have an organ donor card.

I'm not dead!


So? Its not like you're using it right now.


Let me have a look around back.


OK and be quick about it. Its not like I have all day.

ah
