Talk:Mirage of astronomical objects

Acknowledgments
I'd like to thank Andy Young for his help in the writing of the article. Not only he has the most comprehensive explanation of mirages and green flashes, not only he has the most comprehensive Annotated bibliography of mirages, green flashes, atmospheric refraction, etc., but he also responded hundreds of my questions via e-mails.--Mbz1 (talk) 15:43, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

2\deg
While proofreading, I didn't correct the typo "2\deg" because it appears in a quote. If the typo occurs in the original quote, we should use the [sic] template. Otherwise, we may simply correct it. Art LaPella (talk) 00:39, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The typo is corrected. Thank you.--Mbz1 (talk) 04:12, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Bold
Wikipedia's normal style is that only the first occurrence of the title should be in bold print. For more details, the official style guideline is at WP:BOLDTITLE. Art LaPella (talk) 00:11, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I've change it. Is it correct now? Thank you.--Mbz1 (talk) 01:21, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes. Thank you. Art LaPella (talk) 03:17, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
 * It is me, who should thank you for all your help.--Mbz1 (talk) 04:09, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

In or out of the desert
"When Israelis got from the hot desert they were in to the desert ... " I got lost. "from the ... desert" sounds like leaving the desert, but "in to the desert" sounds like entering the desert, which is opposite. Anyway, I thought the whole Sinai peninsula was a desert.

 * "When Israelis got from the hot desert they were in to the desert covered with "Hailstones"" in other words from heat to hail while still in the desert. "Hail" is important word here. If there were no mention of hail, the story of the sun staying still could have been disregarded as yet another Old Testement story, which cannot be explained by science. The hail made the desert floor much cooler than the air above it, and it could have created the right conditions for the susnset mirage. I do not like my style either. I'll think how to change it. I do not want you to get lost. Who will correct my spelling? :=)

Now I understand it. I rewrote the sentence accordingly. Art LaPella (talk) 03:09, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Better. Thank you!--Mbz1 (talk) 03:16, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
