Comments on: Siriusly, Are We Alone? http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2006/02/26/siriusly-are-we-alone/ I am an astronomer, writer, and skeptic. I likes reality the way it is, and I aims to keep it that way. My real name is Phil Plait, and I run the Bad Astronomy blog. Thu, 08 Jan 2009 08:33:02 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.1 By: P.

Funny thing is that they spell Sirius correctly but don't pronounce it correctly. At any rate, Panasonic left Sirius for XM. The Panasonic Radios didn't work that well either.

Too bad channels/programs like that have to be on one or the other. At least they are putting it on the web! Hmmm….*that’s* where my Discovery channel went……it left my XM for Sirius!

Things are lookin' up, orbitally up. Oddly enough, we only get the first 57 channels "and nothin's on", much. BTW, if you visit with ISR, ask them what the appreciation value is for the star my wife bought me in the early 80's. It's in Sagitarious; it's the dim white one. ;) Happy boxin' during your Phil-a-bustin'. :) Congrats. Things are lookin’ up, orbitally up.
