[sci.astro] Seeking calendar databases of all kinds

rjk@sequent.UUCP (Robert Kelley) (10/11/90)

Hi, I'm looking for compilations of
astronomical events, birthdays, holidays,
and other auspicious dates and times.
I have seen databases for calendar(1)
containing such things, but let them go
by.

If there is sufficient interest, I'll summarize.

I have a small one that I culled off the net.  Someone in sci.astro 
posted  astronomy information, and someone (Miriam Nadel ?) used to post
a monthly calendar.  I never did get all the parts to that.  Any information
you get, I would love to get.  I use the info in the motd, and it generally
gives everyone a kick to know that today is the start of National Kitchen
and Bath Week.

Thanks.
