Historically, I have been able to convince the students that the model makes sense and they have always signed a statement that others with more expertise in the field should review the model. This year I will be forwarding their request to the American Astronomical Society in an effort to convince the organization to allow me to present an oral paper for the January Meeting.

We've been over this before. High school students, gifted or not, even undergraduates, are not the audience that matters. The AAS will not be any more impressed with your petition signed by high-schoolers than I am. Which is not impressed.

You can depend on the critiques (and you
will get them), but are you capable of learning from them? Have you finally learned the difference between two independent dimensions and two parametrizations of one dimension? Your ideas will make no progress as long as you persist in this error. Graduate students and professors will notice this first thing. (As I have done.)

I'm looking forward to it.
