Paul - I have my doubts the show will have any impact on the TMT mainly because those that are opposing the TMT are not basing their arguments on science. The latest news is that the appeal by the TMT opponents was dismissed by the court but they are now thinking of appealing that decision. It's a shame, in my opinion, that one of the more prominent opponents to the TMT used to work at the summit and certainly didn't respect it in my opinion. Littering the summit area with cigarette butts certainly doesn't fit in with my idea of respecting the summit.

There are also some funding issues. I believe there will be more news about this in the next few weeks, but don't know for certain since I'm not involved in the process. But I do hear things...
