The Uranus dial-up.

Very good question. I guess many of us will meet again on another forum. However some of them are hard work, and not all of us have the time for the formalities involved. The beauty of YA is that it was possible to chuck together a reasonable answer based on what we know, and not have to worry about providing references. Another good point of YA is that it was an excellent way to sound out the scientific literacy of a great many folk who only have a passing interest in astronomy. Some of the other forums tend to be a bit "stuffy" and the subscribers are even more humorless than the average on this site.

Forget astronomy message boards. Find yourself a local astronomy club and join it.
