I fully expect to be chastized by the shepard of sci.astro for this post, where Tim will get off without a mention. Nevermind that he is inciting to a crime, here on sci.astro, or is forging my e-mail address on postings. THIS is all just swell, per the shepards, whom I expect any moment to emerge and declare that I should be burned at the stake or stoned.
