Hear, hear - this is a fantastic result and quite an incredible achievement, of which Terry should be rightly proud.

Great work Terry, your love of comets shines through your work.

Cheers

Dennis

Well done Terry!
Im seeing all the posts on this comet through Yahoo comet section as well, is this comet on its way out? I hope to get a glimpse of it as soon as the cloud buggers off!
Cheers!
Excellent effort!

Again congratualtions Terry. I wonder if "the news" has/will report on this?
Seems more than worthy to me.. Mike as someone in the game maybe a press release or whatever .. Terry is the type of hero that needs to be presented to the public..they wonder why our kids avoid science could it be that more recognition of such magnificent achievements go somewhat unrecognised.

Hey hey! Congrats Terry. Fantastic effort. We're all insanely jealeous of course, especially Tony.

Top stuff

Houghy I have changed my Avatar and used the image I had for March 16, but had to embellish it slightly (don't you love Photoshop!). Seeker, its number one although I had 2 close calls in the past where I had images of comets before they were discovered but overlooked them in my images.

I hope to keep searching (and I've already examined 14 sets of images since the 2007E2) and find a few more before it becomes too hard to do as professional surveys continue to step up.

Terry
