Dear Helmut,

It is good to have your confirmation that
the EoT changed sign on 15 April 1707.
John Davis made me nervous!

Of course, this wasn't 15 April here in
England, and the only outstanding worry
is that Basel was still on the Julian
Calendar.  I know that different parts
of Switzerland changed in different
years but I think Basel was safely on
the Gregorian Calendar before 1707.

It must have been very awkward running
a country where different parts used
different calendars!

Very best wishes

Frank
