With as much diplomacy as possible. hmmm,
Thanks so much for your prompt reply. It is a pleasure to receive
knowledgable mail. I'm familiar with Zip's son's work as well as the work
of Lois and Astrodienst. I have a copy of the ACS atlas on my machine.
I guess I should know more about Shanks, but since Pottenger is the better
known of the two, I wasn't aware that it was his work that Pottenger was
programming.
The atlas actually seems to be the most problematic portion of programming
astrological dates and I can see the wisdom of Pottenger getting into it at
an early point in time. Still, this is a hobby for me and I'm looking to
earn money at it (yet). For now, just seeking my mark.
Thanks again Paul,
Jamie
