Hi Elaina,

I'm sorry but I can't help with your problem with the memory cos I don't 
know enough about the combination of Python and Unix wrt memory 
management.  However can I suggest that you use more whitespace in your 
code to make it easier on all MkI eyeballs, e.g. you have

Decdeg2=dat2['col4']+(dat2['col5']/60.)+(dat2['col6']/(60.*60.))

I think this looks better as

Decdeg2 = dat2['col4'] + (dat2['col5']/60.) + (dat2['col6'] / (60.*60.))
