Bob, regarding other possible antipodal swirls: I'm sure they have been searched for, but the pre-Clementine images would have been limited in quality and I'm not up to date with what's been done with Clementine. If they really are associated with ejecta, older swirls associated with some other basins would likely have been destroyed by later impacts. For instance, putative Crisium swirls would be destroyed by the Orientale impact.
Also, if this is the explanation, what produced Reiner Gamma? Still not at all clear. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.
