Re:One more, perhaps only one more, time (Score 1)

I shall repeat myself for the third time. I have provided links to show that Thornhill and Ransom were both at the ICOPS 2006 conference, and there is an IEEE conference record showing that Thornhill exhibited an item on the electrical nature of comets.

I do not know whether the PDF document by Thornhill and Talbott was re-formated from the content from the 4-by-8-foot board, or whether it was an additional item, or whether Talbott's name was omitted from the conference record. As I did not attend the conference myself, I will not speculate further, and you are just as able as I am to look further into the matter if you wish.

As for the omission of the Hale Bopp image credit, I thank you for bringing it to my attention, and assume that you have also brought it to the attention of the authors, unless your only intent is to make mischief.

Unfortunately I haven't found the page where the ESO Hale Bopp image is credited, but do not doubt that my name appears, as it does on most of the Thunderbolts APOD contributions, as I am a contributor. I only wish that by having my name on a page, it makes me as knowing as you suggest.
