Tom,
Nice read. I feel bad for Stevens. He should have gotten credit. I did not
realize you were there that night. A witness to history.

Subject: [AZ-Observing] Tom Bopp
Tom Bopp, co-discoverer of Comet Hale-Bopp, passed away on January 5. I
have no more details, and don't know if there will be a service in Phoenix.
In 1996, Tony Ortega wrote this account of the story of Tom's discovery in
the "New Times."
