    Hello Howdy and G`day

    Very Informative .Thanks from a frozen Canuck skygeezer!I live at 53+Deg.N 117+W and spring has just sprung but the flowers won`t be blooming til May.
    Will have to bookmark this site and listen again to your guest speakers.
    I also listen to Astronomy FM while net surfing about astronomical things.
    Have enjoyed Amanda`s blog for a while now .Lots of good links to a variety of subjects including astronomical stuff.

    Peace and Clear Skies!

    Thanks Bill for the lovely comment. Much appreciated :D

    No siree on the email posting, I am sure you are quite fine in the manhood department~

    Here’s to a warm summer for you, ours was cool, and as you heard in the podcast, causing Siding Spring all sorts of heartache in the observing department.

    Thanks again

    Allison
