Hartwig,
This is wonderful!  Not that there will be no other storms in my
lifetime :-( but that you have completed this work :-)

When you have this work published, please pass on a summary of the
dates/times of enhanced (non-storm) activity.  It is always nice to
have dates marked on the calendar!  Observations of these will make
an important contribution to the understanding of dust production
form comets and meteor stream evolution.  Well done!

Cheers, Rob
