Hey Steinn -- I sent you a long email yesterday with a physical argument explaining why the line of nodes circulates. Not urgent at all, since you've probably got the puzzle solved already. But a nice demonstration of why in the right geometry the rate of change of i goes like cos^2 of the planet's phase.... Feel free to post emails to me on any entry on my main website; I can always delete them after receipt if they aren't meant to stay there.
