Hi Fraser/fraiser/Frasier :P ,
This probably more a request for clarification than a topic. Still ...

I use the computer more as a tool than for webb communication; and UT is the only forum I have used so I don't know much of the nomenclature.

Last night the Australian National Radio mentioned a webb sitec:

heavens-above.com

and I had a look this morning and found it VERY interesting to I thought I'd pass it on to my buddies on UT ...

but is it allowed?

If not please delete this post. :blink:

Linking to other sites is totally fine, I heartily encourage it. And Heavens Above is a great website.

http://www.heavens-above.com

What we want to avoid is when people sign up to the forum with their only objective to advertise some other website. What's called a "post and run". You've got 200+ posts under your belt, so you're not going to be using the UT forums as a place to advertise.

Make sense?
