Snadbox

Hello Reyk!

Pat on the back for the Ida 243 article, which is well-enough written to be informative even to the non-scientist.

(I will note that technically both spectra and ejecta are plurals, so verbs should be plural, and the relative pronoun should be those not that, but I haven't made the changes since this is very much a lost cause. A bacteria, anyone?)

And is there any particular reason why you have a snadbox rather than a sandbox?!?

When I first set it up I was going to spell it the right way, but I made a typo. I thought it looked funny so I decided to keep it that way. Reyk _YO! 20:26, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
