Frank,
In response to Doug's question about estimation of sun's declination, you suggested a simple graph would produce better results than a linear interpolation between solstices. Is the attached drawing close to what you were suggesting?
This draft does not follow your dot count recommendations exactly. It's just to see if I understood your suggestion.
