It's no use asking, because he can't reply.
He's been banned, and that ban includes any and all incarnations and sock-puppets and new registrations for an inderterminable period of time.
He managed to slip a few usernames under our radar, but that shouldn't happen again. |

You gotta love that APOD...Astronomy Photo of the Day site; at the least for one last 'boot outta town' post for BigBrain's silly post. |

Then there are these factoids I'd posted:
Factoids: Five things you should know about the Sun
1. It's very hot. Handle only with barbeque tongs and oven mitts.
...
HalfMooner, I find it incredibly irresponsible of you to leave out item #5 (Never squirt charcoal starter directly on the Sun). |

Course, the nay-sayers ignorance of Photography 101 screams out with this one. Easy to see the camera's aperture was opened up a bit to capture the softer light reflecting from the rings, which by doing so caused the brighter direct sunlit surface to blow out.
The same sort of thing can be seen with the "objects in front of reticles" claim made by Apollo hoax believers. |

Guilty as charged. I left that out deliberately, to encourage Darwin Award winners.
