So, I looked at the "Contact Us" link, but it neither
gives an e-mail address nor brings up any sort of
form to fill out, to contact Mr. Wade or anyone who
might look after such an issue.

Any ideas ?

Works fine on my machine for that page; clicking on his name brings up a
email form for him.
His email address is:
Make your subject line: "Comment on Encyclopedia Astronautica"
...and start your message with: "In reference to your page on"

And yet another bogus topic gets planted, and the three of you
rusemasters go at it like a threesome of sex starved rabbits.

...IIRC, Septicane didn't become approved until 2003, and didn't start
getting widespread use until 2004, so you just missed out on it. I've
found locally that some dentists haven't even heard of it, while a few
others are so old fashioned that they'll stick with either Novocane or
Nitrous because they don't want to have to keep "200 different
anesthetics in stock". Those are obviously the same dentists who
started their practice with a pair of pliers and a bottle of Old
Rotgut.

Not to mention a piece of string and a door handle...

When they pulled three of my wisdom teeth back in the 1970's it was done
with local Novocaine anesthesia and intravenous sodium pentathol to make
me groggy.
I can see why they use that stuff during interrogations. I was so out of
it that if the dentist said he had wanted to cut my head off I'd of had
no problem with the concept.
If they'd given that to the Al-Qaeda terror suspects instead of
waterboarding them, they probably would have had Osama's shoe size,
favorite type of tea, and cellphone number inside of a week.

That's always a pain in the tuchis.
That's how you spell it?
When I was a kid I assumed it was spelled "tokus" from the way my mother
pronounced it.

The "ch" should of course be pronounced as in Scottish "loch".

If I read it aloud to myself, I can almost understand Jiddisch...with a
bit more Hebrew vocabulary, it would work better still.

Our family's pronunciation was "T�k-us".
Is there a good online source for the history of the Yiddish language?
It sounds like it would be interesting to read up on its evolution.

And the great mutual ruse/sting of the century continues, as though
god and all of his kingdom were on the same side of the USSR/USA
coinage.

Such bogus topics that even a failing 5th grader can see what a total
crock of mainstream infowar tactics is going on. Too bad that BHO is
going to have little option but to cut our NASA budget to the bone
(eliminating most everything except the most pressing terrestrial
related matters), thanks mostly to the corrupt politics and their SEC
approved Ponzi Madoff and Big Mother Ponzi AIG.

Just checked GM stock, and it's almost worth as much a toilet paper,
along with a number of other public bailout investments going onto the
toilet. That's OK, because what's another million of middle and upper
class unemployed, plus at least another half million of preexisting
UAW retirements and medical benefits trashed, all because of our
corrupt and greedy UAW and faith-based corrupted government agencies
of their hording era. Now they got next to nothing outside of
whatever chapter 7 manages to liquidate. Way to go warlord
republicans.

How many chapter 7s per business day are averaging?

Yeah, I could see that one coming a mile off when I posted the comment;
it warned me about the posting not showing up right on the newsgroup due
to use of a non-recognized letter form.
...."tokus" pronounced similar to "Coke us".
