Karl Battams at NRL e-mailed me Thursday morning to tell me the good
news:  that my Kreutz comet find Wednesday evening turned out to be
SOHO's 1500th (and #76 for me):

As I told Karl, I knew the count was getting quite close to 1500, but
didn't want to jinx myself by reading through the pages of recent
confirmed discoveries to see exactly how close!  --Rob
