Narayan, sorry that we didn't give you credit for the naming of the "Whirling Dervisher" Nebula, NGC 3247 in Carina on pg 76. Unfortunately the source from where we got the name didn't lead us to you, and for that we apologise. We always try to give credit where credit is due.We were particularly taken with that name. Very nice images at your flickr site too BTW.
Cheers,

I really meant it when I said its ok
But should you choose to attribute the credit in your next edition, I wouldn't mind!
But it would be great if indeed the name caught on..and was used..because I genuinely feel it really describes the nebula
