Today marks the tenth anniversary of the death of Robert Burnham Jr. For those who have never done so, read the article at

Let's pay tribute to a man who gave amateur astronomy so much and got back so little.

I'm with you Doug. I have his three volumes and any time my mind begins to slip on the majesty of the universe, I only need to read a bit of his books. His work is truly inspirational to me. Thanks for the article.
