Hi Folks

just a quick apology and an explanation about the post I recently added "Some thoughts for identifying an astronomer as an amateur".

Look, it was an oversight .. in my haste to get the info in to help straighten the discussion, I inadvertently forgot to add the reference to Tom Williams home page source. http://www.ruf.rice.edu/~trw/define.html

Lesson learnt - check and recheck before sending!

I didn't originally infer it was my article, I just headed it "Some thoughts for identifying an astronomer as an amateur". The last few paragraphs were mine added as interesting observations on the topic.

I've personally written to the administrator Mike with these same
words and apologise to all concerened. It won't happen again.
