Hi Thomas, sorry to hear of the above difficulties as I would be very
interested in seeing, and reading, such an article in Sky & Tel. I just
wanted to let you know that the treatment they have given you is not unique.
I have written several meteor-related articles, sent them in, and received
no response for up to 10 months later! I currently have one "in" since
January....
Although ASTRONOMY doesn't have the circulation that Sky & Tel has as you
mention, it might pay to try them out too. If they start publishing meteor
articles....maybe Sky & Tel will be forced to keep up with the competition.
