Robert E., you wrote: "I remain a strong booster of those tables although admittedly, I have not done a lunar in a long while." This has me thinking again about the significance of Bruce's tables. I'm guessing that you have not tried many other methods of clearing lunars, and also that there really were no alternative methods readily available to you when you were trying them ten years ago. Is that right? As I mentioned briefly last month, I think this is the un-sung impact of his tables: they brought lunars to navigation enthusiasts when lunars were almost completely unknown, or were known only by reputation. -FER --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to NavList@fer3.com To , send email to NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
