I played with the calculator a bit, and there seems to be a problem with 
the JD calculator. If i enter the date: 

2004/8/19//23/35/31

the list of julian dates begins with 

2453236.558, but the above date is in fact 2453237.483 (and the airmass is 
wrong)

If i enter the proper JD instead of the date/time format, the airmass is 
calculated properly (with my eastern logitude entered negative).
