Try http://www.bethlehemstar.net/ I just checked and it works. Incidentally Rick gives full attribution to others and only claims to be blessed by looking a time period that was historically dismissed due to a calendar shift that was not widely recognized during the last couple of centuries. Hopefully you will check out his site and hear the presentation.

On that web page, it takes the man taking credit for this theory about eight
nearly incomprehensible web pages to finally get around to saying this:
-
"...A magus watching Jupiter that September saw
two objects moving so close that they appeared
to touch. This close approach of celestial bodies
is sometimes called a 'conjunction.' Our Middle
Eastern viewer saw Jupiter coming into a close
conjunction with the star, Regulus. ..."
-
This is a theory that has been around for way over thirty years,
and that's just the time that I have been aware of it.

This entire thread is non-news - and non-sourced.
I rate it a 2 on a 1 - 10 scale.
