Sorry folks, I can’t do a live video chat today. I’ll be heading over to the Ontario Science Center with the group from the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada instead. I’ll be out basically until tonight, so I won’t be putting up any more posts today either. I’ll e up and running again tomorrow… with my Big News. 
Stay tuned.
If you went to BadAstronomy.com and found yourself here, never fear: the BA Blog has moved to its new home at Discover Blogs. The original BA site (with the Moon Hoax debunking and all that) is still online, too.
Phil Plait, the creator of Bad Astronomy, is an astronomer, lecturer, and author. After ten years working on Hubble Space Telescope and six more working on astronomy education, he struck out on his own as a writer. He has written two books, dozens of magazine articles, and 12 bazillion blog articles. He is a skeptic, and fights misuses of science as well as praising the wonder of real science.

@ BAMom
Well they say Mom is always the last to know! Shame on you BA for worrying your Mom like this : )
June 29th, 2008 at 11:57 am
Alright, alright! The suspense is too much. At this point, all I can say is it had better involve cake, or I’m outta here!
June 29th, 2008 at 12:36 pm
Cake?! The cake is a LIE!!
June 29th, 2008 at 12:44 pm
Right there with ya Madge! The suspense is KILLING me. And, Phil, you’re keeping your mom in the dark too?!? You are a cruel man.

Let’s all start posting guesses as to BA’s Big News!
My guess: He’s found an advertiser to sponsor his blog.

Oh c’mon folks, you know I wouldn’t hold back from my own mom!
She already knows the news, but hasn’t realized that what she knows about is what I’m announcing on Monday.
And Mom, no cheating. Don’t tell anyone.

Us lucky ones in Toronto got to have live chat with BA over dinner….looking forward to the talk tomorrow!
June 29th, 2008 at 7:43 pm
Hope you liked the OSC, but I’ll give you a little tourist tip, Science North up in Sudbury is where it’s at.
And this from someone who doesn’t live in Ontario…

@BAMom
Little do you know that you already know what the rest of us don’t know. So if you know what we don’t know what would it take to get you to put us all in the know and let us know what you know so that we all know what it is you know. Then everyone would know whatever there is to know. Or is it on a need to know basis?
June 30th, 2008 at 7:09 am
Well now I’m thinking it can’t be anything too exciting or BAMom would have told me! Unless BA swore her to secrecy from the rest of the family! So it’s Monday now. Wake up Phil and get online!
