But what about the moving ones?!?  Please, not more epicycles....   :-) :-)

Subject: Need Hugo images

I am a grad student conducting research in the area of image processing.  I
have noticed with great interest that there are files containing satellite
photos of hurricane HUGO available via ftp.  Unfortunately, our campus is not
currently connected to INTERNET.  We are in the process of lobbying our
University administration for access.  

However, I would greatly appreciate getting a copy of the HUGO images.  If any
one can help by emailing them to me or advising me of an alternate method, I
would be greatly appreciative.

Thanx in advance.

 So you are proposing a god named Evolution with a Will and a Purpose?!?
>Perhaps intelligence became favoured in evolution, becuase it is evolutions'
current attempt to insure survival of DNA-based life, by contaminating the
universe with it"
  Pray tell how proteins and acids have this intelligence and knowledge of the
existance of the universe, and how they can plan mutations to produce
star-travelling civilizations? You are proposing a new god. That is its
correct category. Either Theology is the Queen of the sciences or else this
belongs in talk.origins, or some discussion on religion and philosophy.
  Personally I do believe that areas of study inter-relate, but due to the
prevalence of bigotry, let us at least acknowledge this.
