Dear Dave,
WOW! What a great response. Everything I ever wanted to know, and in
such a way that I could understand. Many thanks for the URL and
for the notes there. Wonderful stuff.
Now all I have to do is convince the Australian government to send me
to say, Kamchatka to observe a transit. Yes, I know it is very
cloudy, but they don't. But it is a wonderful landscape!
Cheers, John.
