					<description><![CDATA[We don&#039;t have to postulate steerable planets. A visiting starship could look lust like a planet in 19th century telescopes.

PS $1.99 is a great price for the Kindle edition. Unfortunately here in the UK it costs £6.50. Amazon do this a lot and it does not endear them to me.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Unless great boogers says otherwise, I will assume that his latest crazy is that the eclipse in the USA on the 21st will be an event changed by some planets being driven into view.

So we just wait till the 22nd and point and laugh at his stupidity.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;coping with things which irritate us the most can pave a way to (more) understanding&quot;

But talking bollocks rarely does. And pretending we are comprehending when it isn&#039;t happening merely stops you looking for enlightenment because you&#039;ve fooled yourself into thinking you&#039;ve  already done that work.

&quot;if we wish to distinguish between true and false&quot;

You have to be willing to accept what you thought was true and has been found to be false is indeed false and drop it.

And where is the explanation of how your BS bloviating is relevant?

What the hell is &quot;unexpected and contradicted by today’s scientists of our planet&quot; in &quot;steerable planets&quot;?

And what is the &quot;someday&quot; they &quot;are detected&quot;?

And what the hell does some wide-eyed woomancer on the youtubes blabblering about energy and aquarius and other rubbish in any way an answer as to &quot;wait till when?&quot;?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Gerrit. I started to watch but fell asleep in the first minute after mention of a partial lunar eclipse and of the Lion&#039;s Gate Portal (whatever that is).

Sheesh! In the month of August a far more interesting and tangible display is from the Perseid meteor shower.]]></description>
