"mutual"? The stupid troll jumps in with crap from Florida in a post discussing
Australia and the ignorance is "mutual"?
How about one-sided, from the stupid aioe troll?

Oh, so that is not ignorance, now?
As for living there, in retirement it's probably not a bad place at all.
Which is what was said. Care to read properly instead of jumping to conclusions?

Sounds almost perfect, doesn't it? To an ignorant troll perhaps.

But like all useless trolls that know nothing about astronomy nor
photography, trolls who also know nothing about meteorology nor how land
cools off and heats up quicker with larger thermal contrasts (compared to
large bodies of water), they can't comprehend how this huge contrast in
thermal energies are fed into the atmosphere directly above the land .This
huge thermal turmoil occurring twice during each diurnal period is what
causes most of the bad seeing conditions for the required purposes. Flying
out to any appreciable distance over the ocean in a sail-plane is certain
death for the pilot for the exact same reasons.

On a smaller scale, this too is why you should never peer through a
telescope from inside a house that is aimed through an open window. The
thermal contrast between indoor and outdoor temperatures as the air is
exchanged between the two robs your telescope of most of its resolving
power. And is also why observatories are never heated where the telescope
resides. My own 16" diameter telescope mirror can take up to 3 hours to
reach very good thermal equilibrium before the rising or sinking air in the
telescope tube dies down enough for more perfect seeing conditions. (Day
vs. night temperatures dependent.)

Your post is a worthy display of a perfect example of what ignorance means.
Post some more just like it. (As you will do and have done so often.) I
don't believe your fellow trolls have quite caught on to what ignorance
means. Perhaps they can learn from you by example.

(A troll learn? To be honest, I typed that for my own hearty-laugh
benefit.)

Outing Ignorant Trolls Is FUN!

And of course you are an expert in photography, meteorology and astronomy.
One wanders why you're posting as an unidentified troll from a well known troll
site, instead of working in Chile.
Ah yes: there are no "observatories" in florida...

BWAHAHAHA!

You're confusing the mirror in your bathroom with a telescope mirror.
Careful: the aliens you're seeing are actually your nose hairs...

Your post is a perfect example of crass, ignorant trolling.

Jeez!

You were the one who mentioned Oodnadata.

I thought I was coming to your aid.

Who needs enemies with friends like you?

Doug: this idiot lives in florida, usa. He's got no clue what he's talking
about when it comes to outback Australia: he doesn't even know where that is.
Don't forget his is the country where beauty queen contestants don't know which
continent Paris is in.
Don't waste your time reasoning with a troll, not worth it.

bwahahah right back atcha ... you know nothing of geology as well, I see.
There's a very good reason that people in FL have only built large
structures in certain locations. Even then, some eventually fall into
sink-holes.

**** are you ever an idiot.

Ahh..., the childish comments from a troll trying to save face after just
having been proved to be the ignorant fool that he is.

Warms my heart to see this admission from you, it does.
