I typically don't go out of my way to call attention to my published images,
but you may need a guide to finding the comet in the picture on the front page
of Friday's Republic. Touching the bottom of the "e" of "Inside look at Comet
Holmes" is a white dot a few millimeters in diameter. That's the comet! Here
is the original photo.

It was taken from the Picketpost Mountain trailhead on the night of October 30.
For those who like to complain about science writing, as far as I can tell, all
of the the facts in the Republic story are true, in John Stanley's usual
meticulous style.
