So you contradict yourself. Two waves do not produce a black ring,
they produce two rings (one dark, one bright) ...

Don't know what planet you live on, Richard, but on this one if there
are two rings, one dark and one bright, there exists a dark ring. No
contradiction at all. Please sober up and try to do a better job next
time.

Hi Cecil,

I live on the blue marble your planet is now approaching as close as
it has been in 70,000 years. The sobriety you speak of is a matter of
having more oxygen than you. As for jobs? Write when you find work,
buckaroo. We have a dead rover somewhere near you that could stand
fixing. ;-)
