  yeah - it calls for celebration.. though I do fear that it will make no difference at all for the believers as juts the fact that the would believe in this indicates that the concept of scientific proofs or lack thereoff renøt really an issue.... but hopefully some doubters will be convinced by this...

  it is a little bit hard to believe that people find there to be some plausible evidence for this theory of personality and prediction. but you can imagine ways of testing it. i guess it just turns out to be the nonsense we always thought it was.

  The part of the story that matters to me most is the bit about "single profitable astrology website can be worth as much as £50 million." I'm going to start one this afternoon.

  Isn't this a little bit like having instructions on the side of a tooth pick box? It almost pains me that a bunch of scientists felt it necessary to disprove astrology. I did get a laugh from "Research Group for the Critical Study of Astrology". I guess the U.S. isn't the only country with snappy special interest group names.
