	<description>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.</description>

		<description>Family, eh? My sisters sent us an International Star Registry &quot;star&quot; as a gift when our first child was born. Given that my wife and I are both PhD astronomers, this went down like a bucket of cold sick. (Other than that they&#039;re not too bad.)</description>

		<description>I&#039;m a real fan of the PolyWell inertial confinment fusor. It&#039;s just so danged elegant, I really hope it works as Dr. Bussards analyses said it should. On that note, here&#039;s the latest info on its progress and the plans to move on to a WB8 model,,,Dang, it&#039;s times like this I wish I was rich. I&#039;d sink a few million in the project just to see if it worked,,,hey, I&#039;ve already sent them MY hundred bucks. A small contribution, but if 100,000 did that,,,hey, it worked for Obama.
