Dear Fred and Peter, Thank you for pointing this interesting piece of data. I recall that in his paper, which was recently discussed, http://www.clockwk.com/lunars/ejwhite/ White wrote: "As observations can be taken at sea with nearly the same ease as on shore,..." and I called this sentence ridiculous. Frank objected. It is interesting whether anyone who tried to do lunars both on shore and at sea would object what I wrote about White:-) Alex.
