Yes, there is a P&G heliochronometer in GoldenEye. I have pics of the scene somewhere, if anyone would like to see them. There is also one in another of the Bond movies, though I can't remember which at the moment. If I remember I'll post the title. I have wondered about the possible usefulness of having a heliochronometer onboard a ship as well... Best, Jim Tallman [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.artisanindustrials.com -
