Just to fill in a blank, Jim Barclay supplied part for the both sides.  
He is an astronomer living in Brisbane, New South Wales (I believe) and 
supplied observations from down under.

He became a pen pal (this was before the internet - way before) of Steve 
Coe and myself - independent of each other.  That is neither Steve nor 
myself knew about each other becoming his pen pal.  We discovered this 
when both of us received a letter from Jim asking each of us about the 
other.  Barclay wanted to know how far apart we lived - at that time 
about five miles.  Were we members of the same astronomy club (SAC).

No doubt a pleasant surprise for Steve and I.

More clear skies to all,
aj
