    Great paper, William. I hadn't yet seen it; thanks for passing along the
    URL. The tables are especially valuable.
            I'm curious about the RA axis of Figure 1, as no units are specified.
    May I assume it is 0:00 at the left and 24:00 at the right?
            To what extent does the apparent concentration of pulsars in the
    galactic plane reflect selectivity effects (that is, are we looking for
    them primarily in the plane of the Milky Way?)

    Good news indeed. Happy hunting!
