How Cool is This ????
I was just deciding that it was time this forum and me parted. It is too irritating and such a complete waste of time ..... then I got this and just had to share with youall!!
Mars as big as the Moon?????
edit: disappointing: It was sent as a slide show presentation .pps file, but I could only attach it as ppt, so you'll have to imagine the pretty music and move the slides on manually

Me three love - I love your posts and your sense of humour. You meet all kinds on a public forum like this. As a wise person said to me once - at the end of the day, this isnt real life, its the internet. Just ignore the idiots and trolls, your life becomes alot easier when you do!

You're right... it does appear to be a hoax.... what a strange thing to do! There's nowt so queer as folks!! 
Here's a quote:
July - August 2006: Mars is too close to the sun for safe viewing by amateur astronomers this month. Mars is visible with difficulty after sunset for the first two weeks of the month before becoming lost in the glare of the sun by month's end.
from this site: http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/allabout/ni...tips-2006.html
As to whether I'm going to disappear ... gah I'm probably too addicted after all this time. But I do waste FAR too much time here, and some of the recent posters have really got up my nose.
I'm only sat here now cos I have a good excuse... a huge bruise from hockey, which makes any sort of movement quite an ordeal!
sigh. .... should I tell the person who told me? what a shame, he was so excited about Mars being as big as the moon .... though I did think it a bit incredible hence all the ????'s and the ..... never mind eh.

Noooooo, you can't go Morwenna! I like your honesty and the way you say things how they are - good and bad. We need peeps like you on here and besides, I want to know when your house finally gets finished 
You'd miss us crazy regulars
