”If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” -2 Chronicles 7:14

I found my March 23 The Lima News very interesting reading. First, I saw a letter from William Baker (currently incarcerated) commending Brice Brenneman, Ron Lora and myself for “bringing to light” the injustices Doug Wine has suffered at the hands of Auglaize County Prosecutor Ed Pierce and Judge Frederick Pepple specifically and the Ohio justice system in general.

In response to a previous letter on Leslie Peltier, we do have a marker on his achievements as an astronomer. During Ohio’s bicentennial celebration in 2003, a marker was placed at the Delphos library, beside a sundial, also recognizing his accomplishments and discipline recording the movements of our planets, stars and comets.

Recently, I saw an online post of a memorial road marker dedicated to Dr. William Brooks and his Red House Observatory in the Finger Lakes region of New York.

But Brooks was only the second-greatest discoverer of comets.
