From Konstantinos in Greece: Greetings from Piraeus, Greece. This is just a quick mail since I feel the need to congratulate you all on the fantastic job you are doing. I found out about your podcast, only a few months ago and since then I have been totally hooked. You present a voice of calm reasoning which is so rare in our days. Again, my sincere, heartfelt congratulations and please, do keep up the great work! <pFrom Andre: Since last week, my iTunes says your podcast is not a valid URL. I'd like to continue listening to you, can somebody help me? Barbara replies: Our IT manager suggests that perhaps you are using the older RSS feed address: http://podcast.seti.org instead of <a href="http://podcast.seti.org/index.xml">http://podcast.seti.org/index.xml</a> The former used to work, but the latter is the correct address. Andre has since reported that this information solved the problem.

<h2> Nigerian Bank Account Method</h2> The best of the day to you. I am Ulamba Rebambat, the wife of a prominent Nigerian bank official recently forced into exile. It is with distress that I write to you, good friend, and wouldn't do so under any but the most extraordinary circumstances. Approximately $160 million in gold bullion, the entire metallic content of the Nigerian treasury before the unfortunate coup that displaced by husband, has been accidentally deposited in a North Dakota bank. We are making every effort to secure the return of these funds, and are urgently soliciting your help and cooperation. You will be amply rewarded with $2.5 million in buffalo head nickels, as well as an autographed photo of my (late) husband suitable for framing, upon completion of this recovery transaction. We can initiate the transfer of funds, and bring the day on which you can order your new Maserati closer, if you will only send me your legal name, bank account information, and a estimate of the worth of your current residence (for credit purposes). Rest assured that this information will not be shared with anyone other than those for whom it is essential. It is with gratitude that I thank you for your kindess in advance. Or, you can donate to the radio show. Contact us at <a href="mailto:arewealone@seti.org">arewealone@seti.org.</a>

<h2>The Maunderer</h2> I like to talk a lot, and I never stop to breathe I run on at the mouth, a whole lot more than you'll believe The concept of abridged, or make-it-short-and-sweet That's the kind of goal, you'll never see me meet. Refrain Cause I'm the maunderer, yeh the maunderer, I maunder on and on and on and on If you're looking for a sound byte, or a brief and pithy tale If concise is your ideal, and you're curt with your email You'd better look elsewhere, 'cause I like to rattle on I'll keep on spouting off, until the feeble light of dawn Refrain Cause I'm the maunderer, yeh the maunderer, I maunder on and on and on and on I can't get to the point, 'cause I talk a bright blue streak I think you know by now, I'm a super-loquacious geek I'll bore the public stiff, I'll win the blather cup There's one thing you can say, I'll never just shut up

<h2> That Bright Star in the West in the Early Evening …</h2> … is not a star. It’s Venus, and if you have a good pair of binoculars or a small telescope (or even a big telescope), you’ll be able to make out its white, crescent orb. Since Venus’s orbit is only 72 percent as large as Earth’s, it always appears fairly near the Sun, which is why it can be seen either shortly after sunset or shortly before (which accounts for its appellation as the “evening” or “morning” star). <a href="/images/venus_lg.jpg"><img src="/images/venus_sm.gif" style="float: right"; width:500px; height:536px; border:0; /"></a> Venus' brilliance can be three magnitudes greater (roughly 15 times brighter) than Sirius, the visibly most luminous star. (You can spot Sirius any time during the evening just below and to the east of the familiar constellation of Orion.) Indeed, no matter where in its orbit you spot this planet, it’s always brighter than any star (other than the Sun). Despite what you may have read, rather few women are actually from Venus. Daytime temperatures there are greater than 800 F. Galileo began observing Venus in the fall of 1610, and watched it change from a large crescent to a smaller, almost fully illuminated globe, thus proving that its orbit took it from close to Earth to the Sun’s far side. This was a convincing demonstration that Copernicus was right and Ptolemy was wrong. ... by <a href="http://www.seti.org/Page.aspx?pid=455">Seth Shostak</a> Click on Venus for a larger image.

The NASA Lunar Science Institute, the Kepler and the SOFIA missions invite you to the public opening event on Tuesday March 17 of the new traveling exhibit "From Earth to the Universe" (FETTU). This exhibition of large-scale astronomical images supports the International Year of Astronomy 2009 (IYA2009), and it will receive its first Bay Area showing at NASA Ames in Mountain View. The Ames preview will be for three days -- the exhibit is open for viewing March 17 to 19 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.; cookies and beverages will be served from 2 p.m. - 5 p.m. on Tuesday, March 17. The exhibit will be at the Conference Center (Building 3). <img src="/images/FETTU.jpg" /> <a href="http://www.sofia.usra.edu/Edu/FETTU/">FETTU</a> is a major outreach project in support of IYA2009. With images taken from both ground- and space-based telescopes, FETTU showcases the incredible variety of astronomical objects that are known to exist: planets, comets, stars, nebulae, galaxies, clusters and more. The exhibition is being shown in non-traditional public venues such as parks and gardens, shopping malls, metro stations and airports in major cities across the world. The FETTU images have been selected for their stunning beauty to engage members of the general public who might normally ignore or avoid astronomy. With short, but informative captions on each panel, the goal is introduce some basics of the science involved once an individual has been drawn to the image. FETTU will also be appearing in the San Francisco and the Bay Area beginning in May. The funding for these comes from to NASA's Lunar Science Institute, the Fermi and Swift missions through Sonoma State University, the Kepler mission through the SETI Institute, the SOFIA mission through SETI Institute and the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, Lockheed Martin, and several other organizations.

<h2>Planetary Protection and Hitchhikers in the Solar System: The Danger of Mingling Microbes</h2> <img src="/images/microbes.jpg" /> On Wednesday, April 22, at 7 pm, <a href="http://www.seti.org/Page.aspx?pid=447">Dr. Margaret Race</a>, one of the leading experts on the contamination danger and the protection of planets, will give a non-technical, illustrated talk on this fascinating subject. Scientists searching for life elsewhere have to worry about avoiding harmful cross contamination during the exploration of planets and their moons. We don't want to take Earth microbes to Mars or bring back alien microbes to Earth. In this timely talk, Dr. Race will give a behind-the-scenes view of "environmental management" planning for solar system missions, and explain the role of the Outer Space Treaty and other related national and international policies. She will also discuss the varied societal issues likely to arise from discoveries about life beyond the Earth -- issues about the meaning of life, its future evolutionary trajectory, and environmental sustainability in the universe. Dr. Race is an ecologist at the SETI Institute who works with NASA and the international space community to develop, refine, and apply planetary protection policies to missions to the planets. She has organized and edited proceedings for a number of conferences in this field, and served on panels evaluating contamination danger for the National Research Council. She has a strong interest in communicating science to the public, having worked at both the Environmental Protection Agency and KQED Television. This talk is part of the <a href="http://www.foothill.edu/ast/SVL.htm">Silicon Valley Astronomy Lectures</a> in the Smithwick Theater, Foothill College El Monte Road and Freeway 280 in Los Altos Hills, California. <a href="http://www.foothill.edu/news/maps.html">Directions</a> No background in science will be required for this talk. Seating is first come, first served. Free and open to the public. Parking on campus costs $2. Call the series hot-line at 650-949-7888 for more information and driving directions. The lecture is co-sponsored by: <ul> <li><a href="http://www.arc.nasa.gov/">NASA Ames Research Center</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.foothill.edu/ast/">The Foothill College Astronomy Program</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.seti.org">The SETI Institute</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.astrosociety.org/">The Astronomical Society of the Pacific</a></li> </ul> This talk is part of the local events celebrating the <a href="http://astronomy2009.us/">International Year of Astronomy</a> in 2009. <a href="http://www.astrosociety.org/education/podcast/index.html">Past Silicon Valley Astronomy Lectures </a> Photo: Lake Washington Microbes Credit: D.

Dear AWA, I want you to know how much I enjoy the show you folks put together every week. I was pleased that you took on the vaccine controversy. There have been people in my life who believed the autism canard and I found it impossible to reason with them. It clearly had taken on the flavor of a religious belief...intractable, highly emotional. And these were otherwise intelligent, educated people. I'm writing because I think you came up short in your discussion of why these attitudes exist. The doctor from Philadelphia waved away Molly's question about peoples' distrust of Big Pharma. I found his non-answer unsatisfactory. I recently read a book called <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0312428251?ie=UTF8&tag=arweal-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0312428251">Our Daily Meds: How the Pharmaceutical Companies Transformed Themselves into Slick Marketing Machines and Hooked the Nation on Prescription Drugs</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=arweal-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0312428251" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /> by Melody Peterson, a former NYT reporter.

While I certainly agree that pharmaceutical companies have acted aggressively, unethically and even illegally (witness the recent Pfizer settlement) regarding the sale and promotion of drugs, I just don't see where this applies to vaccines. If we're going to distrust vaccine makers, where is the evidence that they've behaved badly here. Shouldn't there be at least one example of malfeasance that we can point to before we throw vaccine makers under the bus. I know this comes off as Pollyanish. But I worked with a pharmaceutical company for 16 years during the development of our vaccine and thought they were great: caring, careful, rigorous, and above board.
