   I’m wondering Dan, have you been checked for Tourette’s syndrome? It’s just a cursory question.

   Hey, isn’t that part of one of Nostradamus’s quatrains?

   Lazy eye. Maybe Bell’s Palsey, but, hey, it all goes away!!!

   “Let no one expect anything of certainty from astronomy, lest if anyone take as true that which has been constructed for another use, he go away…bigger fool than when he came to it.”

   ‘I CAN easily conceive, most Holy Father, that as soon as some people learn that in this book which I have written concerning the revolutions of the heavenly bodies, I ascribe certain motions to the Earth, they will cry out at once that I and my theory should be rejected.’

   ‘Therefore I would not have it unknown to Your Holiness, the the only thing which induced me to look for another way of reckoning the movements of the heavenly bodies was that I knew that mathematicians by no means agree in their investigation thereof’

   Copernicus was probably a mathematician and Poland invented it. Since we all know math is evil, he got in trouble for the round earth and universe. So, we have math, but it’s much easier to use.

   k9–
   No, never tested for Tourette’s. But I’m Celtic. So, it’s sometimes difficult to tell the difference.
