*5019 = groups.io msg #5855

Note that Eryk's non-group comet (5023) is actually a Marsden-group comet (as, I believe, is the non-group comet from Jiangao couple of days ago). Rainer Kracht has determined that it is similar to 511 = 1429 = 2013/05/25, but he was unable to fully link it. Jiangao's comet may be a better fit for that; we will see in time.

As always, please email me with questions, comments, complaints, concerns, etc. Just please note that I will be on vacation for the next week, so your emails will go unanswered until I return.
