The estimated accuracy grows faster than that, and passes 1s in 2194, so I'm not placing any bets yet :-) Tony. -- f.anthony.n.finch <[email protected]> http://dotat.at/ Cape Wrath to Rattray Head including Orkney: Southerly or southeasterly 5 to 7, veering southwesterly 6 to gale 8, occasionally severe gale 9 later in north. Moderate or rough, becoming very rough or high later in north. Occasional rain, showers later. Moderate or good, occasionally poor. _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list [email protected] https://pairlist6.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
