dear ravindra,

if i can make even one person happy on this earth, it is worth the effort! But

have patience, dear boy, i have to find a way of simplifying the mess that the

author has made of it. He was apparently very knowledgeable, but not very

intelligent, and also seems to have shared the 19th century love for

complicating things. But I guess he had a problem anyhow: calculating sunrise

and sunrise charts was the usual practice, but few could do it. So his book is

full of such info, but he seems to have forgotten the logic of his own method as

far as rectification was concerned, which was the masin theme of the book!

Couldn´t see the wood for the trees. I´ll do my best. My joy is that after years

of trying in vain to fit his info into facts, I read his theory again and could

find the bug!

 

This method is not all that certain: you still have to decide whether you

correct forwards or backwards, but it gives (only) two or sometimes three

choices the play with.

 

GOLDEN RULE: IN TRYING TO RECTIFY DO NOT RECTUMIFY!

 

regards

Mani
