Don't mind Rich, he's just a troll that regurgitates what he's read other
trolls invent, or he himself invents. He doesn't even own a camera, much
less a telescope. Proved many times by many people. He's only here to play
"pretend" with his role-play life, using bits and snippets of info that he
happens to find anywhere on the net. He believes anything he reads on the
net, with no real-life experience to know the difference of when he's being
bullshitted.
