"Can anybody support the contention that the Tropic of Capricorn passes through England?  Anything I'm missing here?  Territories, commonwealths, J.K. Rowling's secret volcano hideout, anything?   
 Okay, I'm getting rid of it.  ""England"" was added by an anonymous user a few days ago.  They also tried adding ""Mauritusiis"" or something like that; I'm guessing they were referring to Mauritius, but they're just north of the Tropic.  So whoever it is is either goofing around or sorely in need of an atlas.

Lattitude?
The value specified in the document, 23° 26′ 21,48″, doesn't make sence. Lattitude is specified in Degrees, Minutes and Seconds, or in Degrees with a decimal after it. The actual Latitude page specifies it as 23° 26′ 21″ without a superfulous comma and extra number on the end.. Guessing, is it meant to be 21.48"" (eg, 21.48 seconds)? however, I can't seem to find any corroboration. It is often referred to as '23.5 degrees south' which is 23° 30' 00""..  There seems to be some variations on what it actually is, including some easily accessable regerences to the fact that the tropics are expanding.. See http://www.agu.org/sci_soc/eischao.html for a quick summary.    xrobau@gmail.com

(Quick addendum - the Tropic of Cancer page specifies that it's 23° 26′ 22"" - Also the talk page mentions that google averages it to 27 minutes exactly)
