Thanks Joe & Dan
I had a vague idea that Tycho was pronounced something like "Ticka" but vague is the operative word.
Ron I had to laugh at your observation & remembered a Groucho Marx quote that was something like "I wouldn't like to belong to any club that would have me as a member". I was given the moniker by a bloke who bought a used computer from me about 12 years ago. It wasn't the computer but the state of my room that did it - spare parts, bits of wire, screwdrivers, old tea bags all floating around in the mud & the blood & the beer.
He reckons he stumbled into the set of Steptoe & Son without the horse. We became good mates & I wear the name like a badge of honour.
But you're right - would you buy a telescope from this man?
