Yes, maybe one year I was out. Not a very easy year, but useful one. Hello once more. As for Bowditch, you have him within easy reach. But I saw his early edition in Paris two years ago, where his first method of lunars stood only in the appendix and therefore Thomson's method (later the second) held the first position in the main text, if I remember it well. Not very important, of course. Jan Kalivoda
