I'm surprised she didn't get hairy, grow fangs, and prance on her tippy toes. :smiley1:

Wow, trying to prove that Shelly was a liar from an account of something that happened in 1816. Some people need to get a life :smiley1:

[Donald] Olson has made a hobby out of using the sky to solve the mysteries of many of the world's most famous works of art and historical accounts.

His study of tides in the English Channel forced historians to change the accepted date of Julius Caesar's invasion of Britain in 55 BC, and he used astronomical tables to pinpoint where and when Vincent Van Gogh painted the famous painting alternately known as "Moonrise" and "Sunrise over Saint-Remy."

Great stuff! It would be interesting to see what he's got on his plate now.
