Hi Bill, this is a very interesting remark (you remember, you sent me some FORTRAN code for porting to "C" on QNX 6 - a project still to be carried out - a young student will do that during the next months). Looking at the non-solar-system planetary systems that way seems to be almost "geniuous". Congratulations to this remark and observation !!!! Good luck when promoting this idea !! Jörg Bill H.
