Does anybody out there have a decent Phase of the Moon routine
(actually, it'd probably have to be a set of routines - it's a hairy
problem)?  What I'm looking for is a routine, preferably in C though I
can probably translate anything in Lisp, that will take the time/date in
some reasonable format and return the phase of the moon and the time
since that phase was entered.

Please respond by mail before sending me the code, so I won't get
multiple copies.  Also send me mail if you would like a copy; I will
post to the net if there is sufficient interest.

P.S. I need the routines to figure out when our mailer will work! :->
