I understand that neither Winchell Chung's star list nor your own
planet list has been cross-checked with the recent results of searches
for planets outside our solar system ?
See: http://exoplanets.org/
With more than 70 planets now known, there is likely to be a fair
degree of overlap. Epsilon Eridani and Eps.Reticuli, for example, are
known to have gas giant planets.
