Obviously, two different phenomena are at work.

The Xt's-Pieces triangle is, I suspect, a manifestation of the same
positive curvature that gives rise to the Sidney St-Trinity St-
Market St triangle. Reality Checkpoint is quite different.

ANYWAY: I'm writing in sci.astro and have not so far said *anything*
particularly astronomical.
