One of her not-so-bright cult members.

Since Nancy's predictions have been failing left and right, and
Nancy's only recourse is to attack the people that question her, they
decided that they have to come here and show support for their cult
leader.

Nancy refuses to post to sci.astro until Sept 15th, when she claims
her planet will be visible with Amateur scopes (those capable of
visually seeing mag 20 stars - probably 24" aperture or larger).
However, she claims it will be naked eye by April 1st, 2003 (again -
it was a naked eye object in 1995, and again in 2001). She claims
"amateur scopes" can "see" it now, if it wasn't for "light pollution
from the sun" 20 degrees above the horizon when the sun is 18 degrees
below it (the horizon).

Of course, your amateur scope has to have a limiting visual magnitude
around that of a 20 minute infrared (no IR bandpass supplied) CCD
camera.

In the last 6 years, it's gone from a mag 2. naked eye object, to a
mag 10 amateur scope object, to a mag 11 observatory grade telescope
object, to an observatory grade mag 11 infrared filtered object, to a
mag 20 infrared filtered CCD image object. It keeps getting harder and
garder to see, but closer every day by millions of kilometers.

So lately, we have all the cult followers coming to sci.astro to
profess their faith and devotion to Nancy and her Zetan high school
physics dropouts.

After all, the more they scream and yell, dance and chant, meditate
and channel with the aliens, the sooner they'll be allowed to see the
ghost planet.
