Thanks for posting the call-to-arms for the Lyrids, George. There's also
additional information on this shower and how to observe it which is
available from the North American Meteor Network:
                Mark Davis <MeteorObs@Charlestondot net>
and from the IMO Web pages at:
                http://www.imodot net

BTW, how narrowly defined have the Lyrid outbursts been that were observed
in the past? Do the outburst peaks coincide with the "normal" maximum? If
not, it might make sense for regular observers to watch on the nights
preceding and following the maximum as well as at max, full moon
notwithstanding!
