The "unofficial" status is explained on the web page.

He probably meant to say that he banged his wife a lot less than
you might think as he always knew to fuck. Probably.

He also said that he had slept with more than 20,000 women.

True. And your point?


Seriously, whether his claim in the second case was true or not does not
negate what he said in the first case. If you're tall you become aware
quite early that the world is built for the average person and you
accomodate.

Very nice shot David. What settings did you use on the 20D? Is that a
stack of shots, or just a single exposure?

Thank you very much.

That was five three-minute exposures in camera raw mode, in-camera
noise reduction OFF. I used Windows s'ware (TheSky, CCDSoft) at the
'scope and processed the images in the Mac OS -- Nebulosity for
aligning and stacking the five images and Aperture and Photoshop CS3
Extended for stretching and the like. (Aperture is not a Photoshop
substitute, but a complement. It does remarkable "heavy-lift"
processing with minimal user effort and exports directly to Photoshop
for polishing.)
