Sorry for ignorance, but what's a "PR" in this context?

Do you actually think Knives Out is a *heist* movie?

Why would any image of a comet disappoint me?

How do you save $30 on these? (Guessing seranno might have more than one meaning)

You have to scroll way down past the press release to find, in small print, that that's an artist's impression. Average reader would never figure that out from PR. Do better.

We had friends' 16-year old son stay with us for a month one summer. He would eat everything we gave him at dinner, plus stuff we were planning for leftovers, and then order himself a pizza an hour later. I have vague memories of being able to do this too, but it is really astounding.

stratospheric IDP collections include 10s of micron crystalline silicate grains that are probably chondrule fragments, but they are relatively minor component (I think). Dunno about larger meteors

Well, most astro journals only assign a single referee for a paper, so it's easier to get bad/sloppy stuff into press.
