advice you get from "professional" astrologers, and I've fought against it for decades


I was actually referring to the practice of "mooning" which, if you have ever been on the receiving end (no pun intended), feels remarkably similar to reading an HPP thread.

Do you think a gentle soul like myself would know about mooning?

I caught such an event some years ago while doing daytime testing of our telescope remotely from Hilo. A couple walked into view of our main webcam, and the male mooned it.  This was caught since the webcam has a live view and is moveable, and since we had no speakers, I could use the camera to communicate. I had to respond purely by moving the camera. Left-right meant no, don't do that, up-down meant yes, up-only was a raised eyebrow, and down-only was being sad. They noticed the movement, and we ended up having a "conversation" via webcam movements and hand signals.  It ended up with a smile and a thumbs up from the mooner!
