The TERMS for Saturn's movement, for instance, Hi, I am not the orginal poster BUT: I had to respond to Once and for all. I had a good laugh. I been reading this group for 6 months, I was glad to see this question answered a long time ago. And have seen the question asked over and over again. So why laugh, I still have not gotten the book despite best intentions and even lost the answer a couple of times. So it aint over even when it is over. This is NOT "once and for all". Sorry about that chief. Hope I did not depress you to badly. The never ending question. Thanks to FAQ, I know the answer is there if I every get off my duff to get the book. Hi, I had to be a pain here, that is write something says nothing. SHA is better than RA!!!!!! Add a sentence here to note I am friendly. CDKelly
