"Barry" on ABC news - NASA Amateur

Just watched a piece on the ABC news about "Trevor Barry" (not Barry!) a broken Hill Amateur who has been recruited by NASA to monitor Saturn for the Cassini mission.
NASA is very interested in Images Barry took of electrical storms on Saturn, a rare event !
Does anyone know Barry ?
Or Barry, are you here on IIS ?

Saw the story tonight on the ABC and remember reading the other thread. Barry seems to be a really down to earth guy very excited that he is involved with the Cassini mission. A great story and congratulations once again to Barry.
