[Roger Dymock]

Hi Graham,

I use them as well as Megastar and have given them a mention in the comet search
presentation I am putting together (Project Alcock).

Denis,

Thanks for your comments. I am planning to be at the joint meeting in 
Milton Keynes on October 6th. RIchard Miles has asked me to give a 
5-minute talk about what's available to help observers on the Computing 
web site.
Perhaps we could meet there?

Graham
