Yeah Ian, I have seen the figures, they are beyond astronomical, but time is on his side. He has lots of help and I'll bet you were once one of those helpers. My interest started from watching The Sky at Night as a young boy in England and if it wasn't for "Santa" bringing me my first telescope (a Tasco 60mm refractor) in 1970 and seeing the rings of Saturn for the first time, I often wonder if my interest would have grown to what it now is.
So I wonder how many youngsters will get that same spark in this wonderful hobby from what the fat fella in the red suit brings this year, and start them on a voyage of discovery. Shooot him down? No way, Go Santa!
