Hola Doug -
You're a brave man what with so many picking on you. Don't give in !
Here are the entries from a list I keep of my own dscoveries and whatnot:=

Note IM Normae, a recurrent nova. I'm sure the picky people will
immediately say that recurrent novae don't count. And I would answer that
ALL novae are, almost certainly, recurrent -- and classical. It's only
that our searches have not gone on long enough. So I would include
IM Normae.
And note too that Pereira's Nova Sgr 2001-3 was co-discovered by yours
truly, according to the IAUC. And what a nice guy he is !
All the best, Bill Liller
