    My apologies, folks. I got the observatory coordinates off our website, and
    there's a typo. The longitude is 
    122 41 15 (west, or negative). I'll tell my webmaster to correct that!
    
    Also, I made a typo of my own: I listed the RA of M51 as 13d 30 m  when it
    should have been 13h 30 m (hours instead of degrees). I hope no one was
    confused.
    
    Thanks,
    
    Phil
