Big Bertha Thing poem
Some Days, Then Some
by Tony Lance
I've had better days, he thought and said.
When I could get my sorry butt out of bed.
When I wasn't mistook for as good as dead.
When they didn't fill my boots with all that lead.
There are days sometimes, of sunshine on my head.
Windswept shores viewed from along a beachy-head.
Carefree larks, in a clearly blue sky, over-head.
Then of course, I became a headmaster, the old man said.

I don't see what pics of a positron particle (??) have to do with a
conference on
Astronomy, which is basically stargazing and astrophysics and mainly
optics.
Surely all this Big Bertha stuff should be diverted to a physics
conference such as S271?
cheers
Caroline
Or even better, the conference that was specifically set up for
exactly this material,
moderated by Spammer in Chief - Tony Lance.
