    Hmm. I am very insulted.  Celestial is not exactly quantum physics but it
    aint a basket weaving course either. I would like to see the course outline
    on this one....
    
    Perhaps the instructor showed them a photograph of a marine sextant and pile
    of HO 229 tables. Then he gave them all an e-trex GPS.
