Hello All,

Look on page 62 of the March 2004 Sky & Telescope to see a description--with
photo--of the Lunawheel. This is a special-purpose, circular slide rule
type device (no calculating scales) for determining the phase of the moon on
arbitrary dates. The description discusses how it is faster than a computer
(at least accounting for the user) in performing this task.

Have a great week,
Jim
