Right -- thanks for the note! A wrong date among
the data records had confused the average time given
in the table.

Still seems to be a problem. I'd be grateful if
more American data can be gathered. Even if you just
made a raw count of Perseids and you happen to have
an estimate of the limiting magnitude for sky and eye
quality, please send your numbers in.
Best wishes,
Rainer
