Re: [AstronomyWeather] Coordinates for CSCs

Hi Curt.

The clock for Papa Tom's has a grandiose name, but it's a one person's
private observatory. That person asked me to turn on "location privacy" for
that clock because he wanted me to not display his exact location. Location
privacy turns off display of latitudes/longitudes, locations on maps and a
whole bunch of other web features on my pages that might subtly reveal a
sites exact location.

So if you're asking:

- because you want to know if the clock is close enough to your location to
give you accurate forecasts: let me know your exact lat/long (or email me a
link to the right googlemaps page) and I'll check.

-because you'd like to contact "Papa Tom": send me an email addressed to him
and I'll forward it.

If you want to do either, it's probably best if you use private email to me
at danko at pobox dot com, rather than replying to this post.

Thank you. Needless to say getting official support was a huge relief.
