Nice touch Joan, bad call Chip.
The more I learn the less firmly I feel that the scientific
convictions of my youth are absolute. In the last couple of years a
lifetime of knowledge has become somewhat unhinged, so I've taken a
more open-minded attitude of what is possible partly because of the
many surprises science rains down on us with new studies and partly
because of the limits of knowledge. I also believe we should be kind
to each other in our own sorting out of what we believe is truth or
science, Chip.
At last, one or two nights of clear skies, but with a full
moon too, but I did see four satellites earlyer, going out again after
posting. We have what is called June Gloom here in Southern
California, so viewing nights can be rare for months along the coast.
