I am. I had my ears snipped. My real name is Sybok - oh you didn't think I
really DIED fighting with "God" did you?  =)

So am I. (#!#@# humans!) Look at what the NASA site says:
"NASA images generally are not copyrighted. You may use NASA
imagery, video and audio material for educational or informational
purposes, including photo collections, textbooks, public exhibits and
Internet Web pages."
http://www.nasa.gov/gallery/photo/guideline.html

This begs the question, "If a JPL image is on the NASA website, is it
copyright or not?"

Okay, okay, I'll stop I'll stop.

Live long and prosper,
