I object, on the idea that SIPB provides superior software - I've seen
more problems with people typing cal 91 (or whatever) and not noticing
that they're in the wrong century. 
	Your 3d point is bogus anyway - neither sipb/cal nor
athena/cal provide historically meaningful results for that time
period. 
	I'd suggest instead that the *athena* version be fixed.
