In the "Don't You Just Hate When That Happens?" category, take a look
at ham radio's favorite star interacting with a comet in a painful
way. Earlier this year, Comet Encke was passing a little too close to
the Sun when a coronal mass ejection hit the comet and ripped off its
tail while NASA's STEREO spacecraft was watching
(http://tinyurl.com/22xemp).  I guess you can't blame THAT one on the
dog! (Thanks, Rush K2UA)
