    Gents,

    how can you stand making such complicated long multiplications?
    I admire your stamina but I'd go crazy.

    You might think I am already crazy using the Vedic / Butterfly
    multiplication method but as an extremely poor "multiplicator"
    I can tell you it works wonders for me. If you can spare the
    time and patience I ask you give it a chance with a number
    of trial runs and see how it fits you really. You might be surprised.

    If you do I am happy to give you as many examples as you wish.
    Just ask.

    I redid Greg's example problem using the haversine table in Bowditch, which has five places, and, not surprisingly, computed the Hc to the accuracy of one-tenth of a minute.
