I have added a footnote that explains the moon naming convention.  I 
have replaced the "Notes" column with the "Class" column.  As I'm 
running a Star Trek campaign, this is more appropriate for my group.  
Depending on how difficult it would be to implement, I might be willing 
to include a Traveller-type descriptive code, but someone will need to 
provide me with the details of that coding.  As always, your criticisms 
and comments are solicited.
