I'm not really fond of seeing half the front page taken up by yesterday's ephemerides. Nothing could be more dull and it's a bit like having last week's newspapers scattered all over your den. Of course one of the reasons I started doing this has to do with the fact that if the kookloons can waste megagigs of bandwidth with their drivel, then I can take up a few kilobytes with some marginally useful trivia. The problem is not as acute here in uk.sci.astro as it is in sci.astro.amateur however. But it's a perfectly viable suggestion and if there is an outbreak of "trollery" I can return to posting "eph + hemera". OK, Ben, 90.126 n 35.539 |
