Exotic Earths again

Ok, we did a press release at the AAS, it was basically rehash of the old Exotic Earth result from September, but with new improved simulations and a Real Paper (in press) to go with it this time. AAS press office picked it out, and you don't say no to Maran if he asks, dood knows what he is doing.

So, Astronomy picked it up. Front page on their web site right now (direct link here).
Cool.

Avi and Sean did all the hard work, of course.
