Yes with Erick's help and using Sky View Cafe, we both figure it to have been Titan, so your input helps put this issue to bed, I am now more than reasonably convinced that I saw Titan that night and as soon as my new heavy duty tripod arrives tomorrow and the clouds go away, I am going to take another very long look at it, armed with my new knowledge as well of course with Sky View Cafe http://www.skyviewcafe.com/skyview.php
