[AZ-Observing] Re: Update input for SAC databases

OK, but I really am going to stop now.  Folks, it takes a lot more time =
to
add in objects than to fix errors.  So, let's make this the last =
asterism,
unless a truly famous one has been forgotten.  I know I have both =
Dippers;-)

Let's make all the rest errors to be fixed before a release;

Steve,
   One-time SAC member Steve Strazdus once pointed out a little=20
naked-eye, six star asterism in southeast Aquarius that he dubbed "The=20
Pagoda".  I've attached a couple of diagrams.  The JPEG file shows a=20
wide field, with the asterism annotated, while the PDF is centered on=20
the grouping and includes center coordinates and Flamsteed numbers.

   Credit to Steve if you include this in your list.  It's one of the=20
little things in the autumn sky that I've always noted since he showed=20
it to me many years ago.  It's not bright, but very distinctive in a=20
sparse part of the sky and easy to remember.
