I think you have done a great job of pulling information together. My own email 
archive goes back to 1998, and it's straining. I keep getting told "Why do you 
keep everything" but it's amazing just how often one wants cross check past 
history ...

But even having data one has to read it correctly ... My notes on "American 
Atlas" had Collated by Thomas G. Shanks AND Neil Michelson but it should have 
been FOR ... my own researches have Neil's death, but not Thomas's ... So I 
can't confirm that he died in 2008?

My whole interest in 'time' relates to genealogical research and normalising 
times to UTC is something I'm trying to ensure, so need the historic time 
conversions.
