A terrific SciFi author.  My favourite short story of his was titled And then there were none  Brings tears to my eyes whenever I read it.   :)

We are not paying you to read SciFi.  Get back to your research work!   ;D

Oh well done!!  I've just downloaded the complete paper from http://www.ncra.tifr.res.in/~basi/Accepted_papers/george_rv2_edit.pdf
It looks a very interesting read.   8-)  I was able to see that particular constellation (Lupus) when I visited Chile.

You should know me by now!  If HR Lup is interesting enough to observe then it is interesting for me to read about.  Some may think that non detections are a waste of time but some of us know better.  It's a good result and well done!  8-)
