Subject: [AAVSO-DIS] Happy Birthday U Gem


150 years ago, on December 15th, J. R. Hind discovered U Gem while
searching for asteroids in Gemini. To honor U Gem's century and a half
of amazing, entertaining and teaching us, we are throwing a little party
for her on CVnet. Everyone is invited.

http://cvnet.aavso.org

Articles, pictures and lightcurves are the party favors. Personal
anecdotes and stories of observations or frustrations with U Gem are
welcome on cvnet-discussion.

The only thing missing is a perfectly timed outburst in the next 24
hours. We'll see if U Gem shows up for her own party or not, eh?

Regards,
Mike Simonsen
