Silicon Sea -- new archive, track plot available

I want to once again thank everyone who has been helping with the
Silicon Sea problems. I will be asking for more help and advice as I
continue work through them.
I have finished an initial inventory of the problems, and I will have a
little more time to work through things as fall approaches and the
demands of my day job (full-time parent) ease a bit.
* I have created a new archive of Silicon Sea problems. The "plus"
archive has all the available problems (legs 10-91), along with the
answers for all the legs except 91.
* I found out that the Silicon Sea makes 105 almanac page references (I
have counted "sun" "stars" and "planets" as separate references), on 66
unique dates, spread out over 5 years (96, 98, 99, 2000, and 2001).
* I have begun plotting the track of the Silicon Sea from port to port,
using Microsoft's live.local.com. I have posted the first installment
-- legs 10-16
I am hoping the Bob Gainer and I will be able to make a lot of progress
now that we have had a chance to get a feel for what we've got.
Please see what I have at http://rpmhome.net/siliconsea/
Thanks again everyone. It's a lot of material, but I will see it
through.
