blind date information

The entire family being sick, plus babysitter too, is not conducive to research getting done! Nonetheless, Barron and I got in a good hour or so on the blind date paper—the paper on determination of the date at which an image was taken, based solely on the motions of the stars. There is a big difference between his analytical calculation for the contribution of each star to our information about the image date and his brute-force numerical calculation. This difference has to be explained if we are going to publish. I promised that I would do some related math when I can get a breather.
