Congrats on hitting 15,000 Posts Mr. Ponders!
Big congratulations to Paul on hitting 15K posts!
Every single one I've read has been incredibly helpful.. Right from my early days regarding efficient polar alignment procedures through to more advanced setup and guiding information... The man is a wealth of information!! Heres to the next big milestone mate, bring on the 20,000 posts!

 How did I not notice this one coming up!!!
Got to agree with Alex, you are a mine of information, a natural teacher and I'm very fortunate to have you as my mentor.
Congratulations on the achievement Paul.

I think as Queenslanders, We're lucky to have Paul around JJJ... Always nice to know that there's someone close by who knows the answer to the question before you knew the question existed

Anyone can show you what to do, but he makes you question what you are doing. Guiding you. Encouraging you to find out things for yourself. A natural teacher.

Congratulations, Paul.
We need more posts from you in the deep space imaging section, however.

Definitely Humayun. Now that I don't have to setup every night I should become more regular.

Well done Paul – that’s quite an achievement considering your commitments in building your observatory and the contributions you make in person to the local clubs, societies and communities!
