Wow, Joe, just off the top of your head recall?! That’s impressive.

The other interesting observation of your list is how one’s observing latitude influences the list. I don’t have such recall of my favourite doubles, but certainly I tend to spend more time observing in the -40 to -90 degrees declination. Everything past -47 deg declination is circumpolar for me down here in Hobart!

PS, no clear skies yet to do your Orion list.
