Oops! Yes, that would be T.S. (Titanic StupidityTM) on my part — I was probably waffling about what symbol I wanted to use, and lost track as I was writing. Thanks for catching that after all these months! By the way, please consider becoming a Wikipedian yourself (the link at the upper right); it's fun!

For the translational friction factor--does it not depend on the direction of motion for the non-spherical cases? Are the results given for motion along the direction of the long axis?
