    I have begun a new attempt in the thread
    “Waxing Clamshell/phase of Yom Kippur”
    on alt.religion.druid . Note that in some
    traditions the Buddha is said to have achieved
    release from his ascetic years at first quarter
    moon, while other traditions say full moon.
    So perhaps it was in between. :-)

    I am trying again beginning at 2:30 p.m. (1800 UTC) February 19,
    now that the moon is slightly above 80% and my mystic web
    page counter ends in the lucky (for me) number 55.
