   It went a long time unnoticed. :(  I have to always double-check my   
   memory when someone asks me for books on astrology or astronomy in   
   my shop.   
      
   One trick I use to help me differentiate between the two is to   
   remember that "L" = lies, and "N" = naming  ;)  Thus, astrology is   
   the fake version of the stars, and astronomy is busy with naming the   
   stars.   
      
   I know that -ology is "the study of", (which BOTH astrology and   
   astronomy comprises of) but in this case I limit the L & N rule to   
   those two -ogy 'es.   
      
   Elsewhere I have read that astrology is supposed to have given birth   
   to astronomy.
