    The error is only on whether Heath had made it for Newton, not whether
    Heath had displayed such an instrument.  The error was made by me (not
    checking the years Heath operated) not Taylor.

    Taylor has made a lot of contributions to the study of history over a
    long career.  She passes a higher standard than an anonymous author.
