Professor Isosceles Vilikazi of Nyamandhlovu, the well-known inventor, academic and political observer, replies as follows:

"Unfortunately there is no astronomy club in Zimbabwe, because the official policy is that the sun shines out of the president's asshole, the moon has been mortgaged to pay for the troops in the DRC, and the brightest star is Gladys Dongo, who doesn't show up against the night sky, even with the most powerful telescope.

"In any case, it is most unlikely that Zimbabwe would have an astronomy club, because President Mugabe got a very rude reply when he tried to borrow money from Jodrell Bank."
