Well, the program is just a codification of my thought process
to determine where to put the circles. I could have done it by
hand but the program does it in less than a second so all I have
to do is adjust the map according to what the software spits out.
By hand or by computer, the result is the same.

The only improvement would be to have the software make the map
for me based on it's code and the few inputs I add of my own
each time.

The base map is fixed. It's nothing more than a topographical relief
map of the continents and ocean floors. Only the position of the
circles will change. It's basically the same idea as what Stan is
doing, except he also overylays his water temp data. I'm not using
water temps.

I have too many hours. :)

Now if only I could get paid for my predictions.... :)
