Kate -

Thanks for the info.  I'll know better where to send problems. 
"Observations" was obviously not the place! And I probably shouldn't have 
used the discussion group to mention it.  As I said, it wasn't really much 
of a problem, but thanks for fixing it.  Now, I'll have to be sure to 
observe on Feb. 29, 2012 to check out your fix!!!

I don't know whether it is your project or not, but I think the chart-maker 
is a work of art.  I like being able to say which way North is, and 
prescribe the exact field of view.  The web site as a whole is pretty 
friendly.

Thanks again,

Jerry Hudson (HJA)
