or you could have added....."Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the
unfashionable end of Western Spiral Arm of the Galaxy...." :-)
with apologies to Douglas Adams
Tony M.
P.S. I've always suppressed my 'automatic signature' at the end of List
postings as I'd supposed it would become irritating after a couple of readings.
Like the girl in the musical
(can't remember which) "With me it's all or nothing..."
P.P.S. To bring this fully back on topic I can't remember if anyone mentioned
it but, when using CDs as sundial discs, the 'Recordable' variety, used blank,
give the clearest sun line. To test this use one that is half full when the
recorded bit (nearest the middle) has a 'fuzz halo' by comparison. The very
cheapest types have no printing either side so look best.
