What appears to be happening is that there are _no_ suitable dates  
where you can get a minimum of 1.5 hours of observing before 10pm in   
complete darkness, if you are at a relatively high latitude. If you  
increase the time to 11pm, you should score some nights later in the  
year.

I will modify the script to show a message if no suitable nights are  
found, rather than a blank page.
