Comments on: Mars won’t be as big as the Moon! Get over it! http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2007/07/27/mars-wont-be-as-big-as-the-moon-get-over-it/ 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.

Does no one else CHECK the information contained in emails before they forward them onto everyone they know? Google & Snopes are my two favourites...if people would bother CHECKING before clicking they would look a LOT less stupid to their friends & acquaintances!
