    Hanno, did anyone bite on the prosthphaeresis discussion?
    I was browsing the archive and found this somewhat interesting.
    the method is not as fast as weems LOP book or HO249 but compact, 7 pages is hard to beat and that includes 2 pages of instructions, 1 for a form and two for examples...

    Only thing I would do differently is having degrees and minutes column parallel to the minutes only column,mainly to ease two crucial steps, the conversions of dec Lat and LHA from degrees and minutes to minutes only and back.
