While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?

In my opinion, the above criticism of Ed's work with the MAPUG archives is
completely unwarranted. I, for one, am very appreciative of the work he has
done.
My learning curve in this difficult, technically challanging avocation would
be immeasurably longer without the resources of MAPUG and the archives.

Astroviking, I respect your knowledge and experience in this field and the
contributions and counterpoint that you offer on many topics, but I believe
that in this instance your comment was unwarranted and unfair.
