Signatures Needed! (StarStuff)

Come on all! Where's the grit, fight and determination that astronomers are known for?

A petition was started 2 days ago to push for the continuation of StarStuff on the ABC. 23 signatures in 2 days! Pretty poor effort I believe, there should be at least 500 by now so get out there and sign the petition now if you haven't done so, we can't afford to lose this program.

If you haven't read or know about the story you can read about it in this thread here.

So be a devil and do something for science/astonomy in Oz now, sign on the dotted line.

And give links to the petition on other science/astronomy forums you belong to if you are allowed. Get it out there far and wide.
