One of the things I always looked forward to when getting on the C&F board was seeing the latest NASA APOD image posted by Denny. I never thanked him for the effort he took to post each image link, but I hope I can continue posting for others to enjoy (insert "The Parting Glass" from "Waking Ned Devine" here).

AE Aurigae and the Flaming Star Nebula
I teleported home one night
With Ron and Sid and Meg.
Ron stole Meggie's heart away
And I got Sidney's leg.

Re: AE Aurigae and the Flaming Star Nebula
Thank you -- I was hoping someone would do this!
I had never even heard of the APoD before coming to C & F, and Denny got me interested in the whole thing. I had also never heard of TED talks, and now I listen to them every week.
For someone who lived on a horsefarm out in the boonies (and gave his job description as "sh*t slinger ), he had really wide-ranging interests.
If I remember right, Denny also belonged to a hiking forum, where he posted some gorgeous examples of his nature photography. The view from his house had spectacular mountains -- I remember seeing his pictures but I don't know which mountains they were. I bet somebody can fill us in on that.
It's going to take me a long time for it to really sink in that he's not coming back. I keep expecting Denny to chime in on the thread.

(but don't ask me to click on the picture...I never would. I always tried to get Denny to explain it to me, without my clicking. I'm lazy )
