A quick way to find the center-to-center angular distance between the
Sun and Moon at eclipses using the lunar display is to right-click,
left-click, enter. Also, "More Info" for the Sun's angular diameter
gives the value of the semi-diameter. I caught this because I've
worked with s.d. for eclipses for the past ten years. I'm not a
nitpicker.... I hope! <G>
I apologize for accusing Guide of being responsible for my problems
with the mail list. I wasn't blaming you personally, only the group
manager who I thought was a member. I know now it really was Yahoo's
fault. I spent tens of hours trying to use Yahoo's "Wizard", and the
only thing I learned is that their Wizard has the IQ of a retarded hamster!
