    Hi Nick,

    Thanks to your efforts we will have a valuable audio and visual record of this key meeting.

    Re the slides – my preference from PowerPoint is ‘Save as PDF’ so that I can read any accompanying text, but as an alternative the JPGs are fine.

    Yes, just before I had to dash I caught Allan’s comment that Patrick was an accomplished raconteur, placing him in good company along with Galileo and Newton.   🙂

    Clear skies,

         Alex.

    I agree – congratulations to the organisers and speakers for a most enjoyable day.

    I look forward to the recording of the meeting, because I had to leave at 5:35 for my train, whilst Allan was still in full flow!

    Clear skies,

         Alex.

    Hi Nick,

    Yes, I read Rob’s summary that was posted on the TA website.

    It will be interesting to see if any CAMs are observed worldwide by visual, DSLR, video or radio techniques, and if the comet produced a trickle or a storm of meteors.

    Cheers,

        Alex.

    HI Bill,

    That’s a spectacular image from Tenerife.

    Was it taken in the Mt Teide caldera near the Parador?

    Cheers,

         Alex.

    Hi,

    I can’t find the ‘Writing for the Journal’ guidance notes on the new website.

    Is the link staring at me and I can’t see it, or are the notes being rewritten and will be made available in the near future?

    Clear skies,

         Alex.

    Congratulations to Denis and Nick on building the Comet Image Archive.

    Very easy to use.

    Clear skies,

         Alex.
