Certainly not. :-)

That is indeed very obvious. :-)

Still not knowing what we are talking about. :-)

Quite a good picture, Henry.
And yes, we CAN see them puffing themselves up and
letting it all out again.
http://www.aas.org/publications/baas/v31n5/aas195/947.htm
Google Mita+interferometry and you will find a lot of
other references for interferometric measurements of the diametres
of Miras and the periodic change of same.
Miras are prime targets for interferometry.

You see, Henry.
There is no question whatsoever if Miras are pulsating stars.
They are. We can see it.

BTW, Henri.
Who do you think you ridiculed with your remark? :-)

That's an easy one.
Because I was so naive that I thought you had read
the reference YOU quoted from, and wrongly assumed that
you knew what YOU were talking about when YOU wrote:
"Temperature is correlated with the period, you see Paul."

This is hilarious, Henri. :-)
Why didn't _I_ say so before!
You are killing me! :-)

Read it again:
http://aa.springer.de/papers/7317003/2300761/small.htm
And when you now know what we are talking about
you can read my statements above again.

But thanks anyway for supplying a reference supporting
my point, even if it wasn't voluntarily.

No, Henri.
I didn't try to say anything about the nature of the correlation
because I didn't think I had to, since that is what the reference
YOU gave does in a most unconfused and unconfusing way.
And what it says is:
http://aa.springer.de/papers/7317003/2300761/figure5.htm
Hotter Miras tend to have shorter periods.

How the hell is it possible to screw up so thoroughly?
Did someone mention reading comprehension problems?

You don't.
The referenced paper is of course like all scientific papers
part of the Great Conspiracy, and is as such not to be believed.
