Hi Mike,
The Canberra Times article and video interview was a really nice piece! 
Thanks for the tip-off on the Sunrise program. We'll be sure to set
the recorder for the morning of the 13th.
Best Regards
Gary

This is brilliant news Mike, congratulations on the discovery and publication of the paper. To make a significant contribution to the Science of astronomy is just great and I applaud you for this work, very well done Sir.
More and more professionals are seeing the value of amateur data each year, the number of collaborations continue to grow as do the number of peer reviewed papers in the major Scientific Journals that feature amateur authors & co-authors.
Regards
Trevor

Confirmed and scheduled for 8:10am, live from Terroux Observatory with David Koch and Edwina Bartholomew
Now to try and not make a fool of myself... after what looks like may be an imaging all-nighter before the crew arrives  ...dedicated see?  
EDIT: Ok they have pushed it to Thursday morning now 
EDIT2: Back to Tomorrow morning again (Wed) 8:30am..sheesh!
Mike
