But our calander system accounts for the revolution of the earth aroundthe sun to keep important sun-related dates approximately the same over very long stretches of time. And we're willing to add seconds or minutes (or subtract them) when needed to keep the dates approximately the same over centuries. > >The fact that the constellations may change relative to the dates is well-known. The actual numerical date assigned to a given solor- related event will still be approximately the same for as long as we keep the calander system going because we fudge it every so often to keep it that way. ------------------------ Yahoo!
