[Chaos-l] Fwd: Need astronomers for Group Event at Pinehurst Sept 22

[walter fowler]

I  will be out of town myself but for those of you who didn't read the whole
message - *Leonard Nimoy* is supposed to be there and they expect to *pay* *
you* something for driving down there.  To get paid to get closer to a space
alien than any of us will ever get another chance to get!  Check it out and
take some pictures if you get a chance.  I've always wondered it those were
his real ears .....   Walter
