Default 2004 MN4 and David Tholen

Is David Tholen, multiple time winner of the kook of the month award
(http://www.lart.com/auk/whiners.html) and longtime sci.astro flame
warrior, the same as the David Tholen who is one of the discoverers of
2004 MN4, the quarter-mile-wide asteroid that is currently given 1 in
37 odds of hitting Earth on April 13, 2029
(http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/risk/2004mn4.html)? They both seem to work
for NASA in Hawaii. If it is, good work, David!

The table was updated today and no longer includes an entry for 2029. The
potential impact given the highest probability (2.3e-5, i.e. 1 in 43000) is
for 13 April 2053.

Let me guess: you also believe all the people who claim that Kerry
won the Presidential election, right? And that Dewey beat Truman,
because a newspaper headline said so?

Amazing how gullible some people are.
