This sounds like it would be ideal for these major-shower periods, Bob, but also 
pretty challenging! What sort of verbal notation do you use, to manage to store 
enough info about the meteor for plotting, without losing time or using up too 
much tape? (I know satellite observers regularly use some standard lingo for 
describing satellite positions, but they have a lot more time on their hands...)
