Martin,

As someone who has invested some time (though not nearly as much as
others), an very little money in this project, I would have to say that
I am anything but disappointed. I have enjoyed every minute of it. I
have had the opportunity to do some real science, interact with quite a
few professional astronomers, meet many really great people and LEARN A
HECK OF ALOT! And discover a variable star or too, as well. ;-)

I am truly sorry that you are disappointed. Luckily, you didn't have too
much invested in it.

Mike
