Re: ATM Stellafane in NY Times

...some individuals who end up
spending their time making telescopes and don't have the time to go out and
look at the stars...


This is just another example of the NY Times trying to report on a topic
about which they are poorly informed.  Stellar analysis is a study in
atomic physics, gas dynamics, heat transfer theory, and other topics.
Only the NY Times could find a connection between this and telescope making.  
What can we next expect from them, an article on politicians who are so busy 
stumpping, they don't have time to govern, or, I know an article on S&T which 
is so busy selling ad space, it only has time to send its costomers to the net.
