Also, Norman, I would add to the list the amazing Taurid fireball year of 
1981 as further evidence of this cycle.  That year, I recall seeing at least 
3 or 4 Taurid fireballs an hour almost all night long.  Nothing like it in 
my meteor memory save the 1998 Leonids.   1984 was also a very strong Taurid 
year ratewise for me (15 per hour), without the fireballs though.  You may 
be on to something here.

Regards to all list folks,
Paul
