Steven Tingay page - a stub; page is below. Needs expanded lead and biographical info, as well as published works, etc. Also some reference to his public education role (see Perth Observatory, Curtin astronomy nights, MALA etc). Email him re these? Ask him if he's got any links to Astrofest or Perth Observatory talks he's done. Also ask for a current photo. DONE: awaiting a reply.

SIMON TURNBULL notes re his page Link in info box to 'his' website appears to have no relevance to him? Reference 15 goes nowhere other than to newscorp Aust page - not the article. Lots of Daily Telegraph references requiring subscription to read. In fact most of the references are like this.
