That's me, Dan. Thanks for the welcome. A couple of years ago the Navigation Foundation published a paper on the problems, ideas, and equations that led to my method. If you are a member of the Foundation you can get get back issues. It's in issue #60 of their Navigator's Newsletter. At present I've been using nearly all my free time to show how to work Lewis and Clark's astronomical observations. It's an opportunity to reintroduce the nautical astronomy Bowditch knew. But I'd be glad to answer questions about the Tables, as long as it doesn't take too much time or mental effort. Bruce
