Comments on: AAS, coming up http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2007/01/05/aas-coming-up/ 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.

(http://sa-blog.livejournal.com/) and so is the <i>Nature</i> (http://blogs.nature.com/news/blog/conference_reports/american_astronomical_society/). Still, more is better! :) Slacker Astronomers are also there (four of them!)

So for the European Space Agency 8-1-07 means the 8th day of the 1st month in 2007. A quote from the link confirms that, "The next transmission of the ESA TV Service will be: 08-Jan-07" Don't feel bad. I was quite confused the first several times I visited bulletin boards hosted outside the U.S. skeptigirl
