Bit late but congrats again Rob!

Rob McNaught bags another!
The 36th comet was confirmed on the 10th of July, http://www.comethunter.de/

AWESOME!
Congrats again!

Also...below that announcement....
The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory announced that the 2007 Edgar Wilson Award for the discovery of comets is being divided among: John Broughton (Reedy Creek, Qld., Australia) for C/2006 OF2, David H. Levy (Tucson, AZ, U.S.A.) for P/2006 T1 and Terry Lovejoy (Thornlands, Qld., Australia) for C/2007 E2 and C/2007 K5.

Well done to all these comet hunters! Outstanding effort!
