I love it! I feel more secure starting from the formula Sin Hc = Cos L Cos D Cos t +/- Sin L Sin D. I remember this as L dt for the Cos part followed by the L d for the Sin part.
Having all of the relavent functions for 33 degrees on the same line greatly simplifies things. Perhaps there is another step compared to other methods but I feel like I know where I am during every part of this process.
