[EMP2012] date of the 2012 eclipse

[Jay Pasachoff]

The AGU is post-eclipse, but I remain worried about people getting tickets for the wrong day by reading the date of the 13th somewhere, so I am in favor of saying "November 13/14" or "November 13 (GMT) and 14 (Australia)." Perhaps we should standardize in the 2 (or 3) abstracts.
