    Love this, Gerard! Great job. Love the brevity and the humour underscoring it all! And like John, I always feel like I have to think extra hard sometimes on your work!

    In other words, as long as our sun does not explode its planetary satellites continue their orbits? Who doesn’t love a Newtonian Acrostic? Your writing always makes me think and often makes me laugh out loud. Planetary anniversary’s. Very clever.
