As I said elsewhere, eventually I may consider eliminating the date
altogether. I am wondering, however, if I could compress the planetary
positions, which can be expressed as integer minutes. (For example,
17c22 equals (((c-a)*30) + 17) * 60 + 22, where c-a = 2.) How much could
I save compressing these?
