Thanks, Jim! Your summary of the currently available data was really concise, 
and helped clear up some of the questions which even the IMO Handbook didn't 
make entirely clear for me.

But I still have one question for the list: what are some of the hypotheses 
which are being tested to explain the late-year peak in sporadic rates? And how 
are visual observers' data being used to test these theories?

A related question, I guess: where DO the various materials which make up the 
"sporadic background" originate from? Any takers on these questions?
