Paul, in those days, the 1995 days, what was being called Hale-Bopp was a nova THAT DID EXIST. It just wasn't a comet! Thereafter what folks have been calling Hale-Bopp is whatever happened to be in the sky where the orbit was tracking. Unmapped stars, black space, which explains why folks sometimes saw it, sometimes didn't, and were reporting such different appearances and magnitudes that one would think that Hale-Bopp was a quick change artist, not a comet! Nevertheless, the sheep of sci.astro continued to go baaaa.
