Ahem - Michael is now a "Radio Astronmer" dontcha know ;) That's a new aerial or software or electronic gizmo of some sort :)

Though I suspect the prize money will just about cover his flights and accomodation. Now, the royalties on the postcards... $$$ Kerchinggggg!

Michael will be back home tomorrow but he might just get a chance to get online at the hotel tonight if we're lucky... He might even speak to us ;)

By the way - I'm still trying to track down Paul Smith... Anyone?

BTW Congrats Michael.

Your chosen orientation made me look at the moon from a slightly different perspective. When one considers the "face" on the moon I see a "face" that I didn't see before which is new to me and makes the moon present itself afresh. I appreciate it - there is a stroke of genius in it.

I hope this doesn't sound too silly.
