The internet for "the common man" didn't exist then, I was working with this information from The Farmers Almanac:
*Easter is observed on the Sunday following the Paschal Full Moon, which is the first full Moon that occurs on or after the March equinox*. It was determining the "Paschal Full Moon" that was the problem. My algorithm would be a week off, sometimes, but not always. Even then Compuserve had no algorithm as you indicated. I will have to test this to see if it is always correct.
