[Suzy]

Got it, thanks Stu, hubby set up the page for me the other day so I could listen either on the page or radio .

What the hell is that guy talking about that pyramid business *shakes head* Crickey I bet there's someone going to be on there about Nibiru as well. Oh my gosh I just had an idea.

Where's the phone no where I can ring in my question ???

[Shark Bait (Stu)]

I liked his reply to the pyramid question.

NO!

Gold.

Suzy he was on "Mornings with Linda Mottram" on 702 Sydney answering questions from high school children. You might be able to get it from there.

The unedited Audacity files are about 1GB.
The unedited jjj one is about 4GB (some music tracks to be removed).

Yes Stu that was funny!
I liked his comeback on if aliens had built the pyramids why then didn't they leave a spanner or titanium or something.

I really like the way he explained curved space using earth as example if you walked from the equator to the north pole in a straight line it's actually curved even tho it feels like you walked a straight line and putting that into context of how the universe is curved and not really straight. I get it so much better now.

Andrew, many thanks, I'll chase that up.

I'm listening to the show again, this time on radio and yaaay caught up with the first 20mins I missed on the live stream. So much info to take in, one really needs to listen to it twice and then some. What a great show!

[astroron (Ron)]

Some good answers in there as well as a couple of fair questions
You are always going to get the Pyramid type of question in any program of this type ,but well answered without being too condescending
Missed the first 25 minutes but caught up with it on the radio.
Cheers

Just discovered he's doing a gig at the Opera House:

Seems it's all sold out though, much to the disappointment of my girlfriend who even tried to get standing room tickets.

Many thanks Andrew.
That was a fantastic session with the high school kids. Very intelligent questions asked!

Hugh, I didn't know he was doing a stint there, and I'm not surprised it's booked out . I feel your girlfriends pain.
On the upside that publicity pic is hubba hubba hubba...

I was doing a bit of Brian googling (that didn't sound right!) and I came across this article in The Age today titled, "Science Sexy?..."
That pic is what he was wearing when Jeanette saw him yesterday.
And also check out that mullet- it's a doozy!

So, Professor Brian Cox, who chooses your clothes? "I do," he says, laughing. "But I'm strongly advised by my wife."

We now know who to blame for his seemingly one red t-shirt then don't we!

Except for the pyramid / energy beam question.
