Why, yes, Gil. I know that in your moronic world-view where everything's a
religion, and therefore uncertainty isn't allowed, this sort of statement
undoubtedly seems incredibly alien, but unlike some moronic soi disant
anthropologists, most scientists will admit when they don't have enough
information to answer a question.

Seems like you insist that everything must be a religion, and are unable to
copy with anything that isn't.

understanding of astronomy is purely at the amateur level (or below). So
unless what I'm saying is directly related to VAX/VMS, don't hold me or my
organization responsible for it. If it IS related to VAX/VMS, you can try to
hold me responsible for it, but my organization had nothing to do with it.
