Are you still mulling over the thing about the precession and the calendar? I'm pretty sure that's wrong.

Also, I think I gave enough good reasons in this thread that on p.70, ""The time of high and low tides changes every day by about a half hour," should read "The time of each high and low tide is later every day by about an hour."
I reread that section, and I think I am right, but it needs to be more clear. I've noted that and I'll add it to the list. Thanks.
