_What Day is it at our Antipodes?_--Perhaps you can give me a satisfactory
answer to the following question, a reply to which I have not yet been able
to procure.
I write this at 11 p.m. on Tuesday, July 12; at our Antipodes it is, of
course, 11 a.m.: but is it 11 a.m. on Tuesday, July 12, or on Wednesday,
July 13? And whichever it is, what is the reason for its being so? for it
seems to me that the solution of the question must be perfectly arbitrary.
