Re: (meteorobs) Re: Credit where credit is due

yes, indeed, robert and all
i am one to say that without this resource, regardless of what had been
hoped, planned by all of you - you have, at least for me, successfully
accomplished the part of the objective that robert correctly states:
"We did  do something right though, and that was getting the word out that
meteor  observing was fun, easy and a real way to contribute to the
scientific community."

and for that i am, on this eve of Thanksgiving Holiday in USA, grateful.

so thanks - and congrats to the new planets that get to have worthy names!

i wish everyone a serious and joyful THANKSgiving; for the many things for
which we are each, in our own way, grateful.
