Hi All,

William A. Bradfield (20 June 1927 - 9 June 2014)
"Bill" Bradfield was a life member of the Astronomical Society of South 
Australia.
His achievement of 18 visual comet discoveries (between 1972-2004) in an 
amateur capacity is likely to never be repeated, given today's technology.
After his ultimate discovery of comet C/2004 F4 Bradfield, he graciously
accepted an invite to talk about it at the May 2004 monthly ASSA meeting.
I am pleased to say that a copy of his presentation has finally been 
uploaded to youtube:

best regards,
Michael Mattiazzo
