+;; See calendar.el. This file implements features that deal with

;; Based on the ``Almanac for Computers 1984,'' prepared by the Nautical
;; Almanac Office, United States Naval Observatory, Washington, 1984, on
;; 2. Equinox/solstice times will be accurate to the minute for years
;; 1951--2050. For other years the times will be within +/- 1 minute.
