Thanks, George, your answer definitely clears up the question for me (and should 
improve my plotting data!) I should note, however, that IF I'm remembering 
right, my confusion was based on a pretty close reading of the next-to-last 
version of the IMO minor-shower visual observing pages on the Web -  I guess the 
current version is much clearer (now that I bother to read it through):

Clear skies!
