(meteorobs) double predictions and "the Americas"



Dear meteor observers,

I apologize if I am repeating a question posted before, my
work in the last months has not allowed me to keep a closer
contact with the list. So here it goes...

We have prepared a web page on the Leonid Storm in Spanish,
to inform and help people enjoy for this event. We are also
providing talks to schools and other interested communities,
inviting groups to organize vigils and such. You can visit
the page in process here:

Well, when I prepared the page, I noticed that the
prediction tables include two different data for the 1866
stream. And I wonder why two and not just one? You can find
our table in this section.

The other comment I have, has to do with the term "the
Americas" which is used in many web pages and could be
misunderstood as referring to North and South America. The
1866 stream peak will only be visible in North and Central
America. South America will be in day light. 

I would like some help with the predictions question and
comments on the second.
