Default Solar Eclipse help

I am looking for a website reference that can tell me when the next
solar total eclipse of the sun occurs on a Friday the 13th. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Paul

You might try this for starters, but I suspect you will have to get some PC
planetarium type software and do the checking beyond what is listed on this
site: http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/eclipse.html

You might also look for a text by Jean Meeus (sp?), the title of which escapes
me at the moment, but it is a list of tables of various sky-related phenomena he
has generated. I have the text in my office but am at home on vacation at the
moment and won't be there until after the first of the year.
