You are probably the last in the forum to realise that a star returns

possibly feel a twinge of recognition that you cannot justify the
orbital motion of the Earth where there are alternate number of days
every fourth year.

You probably seen a few of the formely leading lights of
sci.astro.magnification disappear to give you a hint that their time is
over or at least they run the risk of highlighting their stupidity
should they post on matters other than telescopes and imaging.

Tell me how it feels to be 3 minutes 56 seconds wrong for the value
assigned to the rotation of the Earth through 360 degrees ?.This is not
some mindnumbing detail but rather an explicit and obvious
difference,so big that you are on the same intellectual and intuitive
footing as the creationists.

So what else is on your mind? Anything?
