Just released: More Rings Are Found Around Uranus

I'm working on the visuals.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20051222/ap_on_sc/uranus_rings

"In 1986, Voyager 2 became the first spacecraft to zip past Uranus and beam back thousands of images of its dazzling rings and numerous moons."

There's a street in San Francisco called Uranus. I had to go to a client's house there, so he told me the nearest cross street - Beaver. When he told me that, all business decorum went out the window. BTW, Uranus is on the edge of the Castro district, of course.

Sorry, Uranus (the street, that is) is at the top of the hill.
