----------------------
You have to convert those dates to day of the year.
You have to convert those times to a 24 hour time-clock
Ex: 6:22 is approx 18 1/3 hr
------------
Plot your (day,sunset time) points
---
Run a Sine Regression program against the 4 points to
see a trig function that models the sunset changes.
