I just took a look at UbiSol for the first time. I noticed that the legal
time was 5:25 and the solar time was 12:25. (at default coordinates)  This
is a huge 7 hour difference.  Shouldn't the difference be equal to the
Equation of time?

Also, the exact value of the EOT would be a useful addition to the data.
