Yet again astronomy news to the physics discussion group and not to
any of the astronomy groups.

   The poor jump is having trouble finding people to discuss stuff with
   him. Maybe it's his breath, or his bullying or inappropriate language.
   He huffs and puffs, with no progress.

   Name callers like jimp, can greatly benefit from these anger
   management classes.

It should be clear to everyone by now that no one, including you, thinks
your cut and pastes are worth discussing, shit head.
