I'll agree with Rob here, though I've only seen Dutton's material
presented by ICUFOS, a Irish group I saw in Dublin Ireland, who
also have some, er, unorthodox ideas, even by ufology's
standards.

(See Dave Walsh's Blather for a fuller report
http://www.nua.ie/blather/archives/issue1no28.html)

Using Dutton's charts this group are predicting UFO appearances
over Dublin on December 14th, which of course just happens to
coincide with the Geminid meteor shower. Another of their
predicted dates, earlier in the year just happened to coincide
with the Lyrid shower on April 21st. Now maybe much of this data
comes from misinterpreting  Dutton's work, but they claim that
these are drop off points for huge motherships. It seems to me
they might be marking something somewhat more conventional!
