I’ll be doing another live video chat starting at 15:00 Mountain Time (21:00 UT) on Sunday June 8. If you look below and see me blabbing about the AAS meeting, then you’re golden. I urge you to go to the UStream page, though, so you can participate in the chat room (or find/use an IRC client you like; the server is chat1.ustream.tv and the room is #bad-astronomy). If you want to change your nickname there, type "/nick Edwin Hubble" (or whatever) in the text field.

Isn’t Sunday the 8th?
June 7th, 2008 at 8:19 am
Yep. Which means that Phil’s countdown widget is a day fast.

See you tomorrow then.
+100 googleplex cool points if you wear a Chiquita Banana hat during the chat.

Any chance that you will say something about the things-we-see-from-very-very-far-away-are-
ancient-history-or-in-another-point-of-view-
they-are-not – you hinted at something like that in the last one, IIRC, and that sounded pretty interesting. And complicated. So, err, yeah.

I missed the last one. Hopefully I’ll be able to make it tomorrow.

Completely off the subject:
In Sunday’s Pittsburgh Post-Gazette was a column taken from the
New York Times. It may be in the Denver paper. It is about the
situation in Texas. The school board has an 8-7 majority for
science and against creationism. It is a very tenuous majority.
One swing vote will change the science text books from fact to
fantasy.

[...] astroblog. Eh… even wat anders: wie vanavond ná het voetballen niets te doen heeft kan via een live-sessie met Phil Plait gaan chatten via US-stream. 23.00 uur Nederlandse tijd [...]

So, I heard there’s some blackout right now (when the chat is supposed to be) where Phil is. Word in the chatroom is that he can’t do it this week.
June 8th, 2008 at 6:29 pm
Ah, I missed it. Had to go to another city today.
June 8th, 2008 at 7:16 pm
DO’H missed again
