I’m a few days late in saying it, but wanted to add my well wishes to the pile. Congratulations, Phil!

Phil,

I started my web page in late 1992 right after I started graduate school, as a way to relax from first-year classes. It was a Lynx-dominated (text-only) design, and was called the Henrietta Leavitt Flat Screen Space Theater. It became a fullfledged website with actual designs and graphics in 1995. Since then I’ve moved it through three different servers, added on a blog, and other pages, and begun doing video.

I remember reading your comments on Usenet, too, way back in the day. I used to get involved in Usenet discussions, but dropped out as I got wound up in my thesis writing; and I had a particularly hilarious run-in with the N*ncy Unit. She somehow found out my office address, snooped around and got my husband’s name, and then published a putdown about how I was pretending to a be a “woman” married to a “man” named “Mark”…

Boy, those were the days!

Lugosi, this “Astronomer” is troll. Some time ago, BA wrote something that rubbed in wrong way this poor mindless fellow. Not having any arguments or anyting remotely connected with Reality on his side, he resorted to rather low-class insults. Typical.
