Mr. Eklöf didn't say -9 he said closer to -9. But it wouldn't matter if he had said -300 because he was writing hyperbolically, not literally. You're not one of those people who, if someone says "It's raining cats and dogs," looks out the window and says "No it's not! That's just ordinary water," are you? ********* No, I'm not. Upon my initial reading, I mis-understood his comment... he was actually talking about the Iridium satellite, which certainly WOULD be closer to mag -9 than to mag 9... \Paul A too bad the post shift from data to psychiatry! |
