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.

My aunt didn't invite you; I did. I'm the current owner of the observatory and I thought my agent took care of the invite for me. I was told you had agreed to come, hence the wonderful sign. I'll get on her as soon as she gets back with my coffee. 2. Who likes gingerbread? EW! =D 3. I'm sorry for the inconvenience and I hope you will come visit one day anyway. From what I hear, you're a pretty awesome dude. =D Love always, Kaylaface. Dear Dr. BA,

I am the niece of JanieBell and I’d like to clarify a few things.

1. My aunt didn’t invite you; I did. I’m the current owner of the observatory and I thought my agent took care of the invite for me. I was told you had agreed to come, hence the wonderful sign. I’ll get on her as soon as she gets back with my coffee.

3. I’m sorry for the inconvenience and I hope you will come visit one day anyway. From what I hear, you’re a pretty awesome dude. =D

Love always,
Kaylaface.

I just showed this to KaylaFace (who's visiting). She's the one who invited you (it's her village and observatory), so I'll just let her speak for herself. Kisses though, and thanks for the mention! (My neice is famous. That's too cool.) :) Hi Dr. BA!
