In a previous post (24 Jan. 2013), I thought a sundial in a photo was neat and
wondered if there were plans for it. As a relative newcomer, I don't even know
what kind it is.
That post was apparently completely misinterpreted by an irritable being as
something having to do more with those things that run on steel rails and not
sundials. I merely responded to the subject line. My post and the response
caused further OTs, for which I apologize.
In any case, it is a neat sundial and I'd like to know more about it if the
designer is not too P.O.d to respond.

Hello Mr. Senato:
Do we know you? I searched my inbox archive and see that you have only written
one letter previously to the Sundial List back in 2011. In that letter you
talk about FED EX and not sundials. See copy of your letter below.
Let me respectfully clue you in on a few things…
I have been on this mailing list for about 15 years I think, and as far as I
know, there is no rule that we must only respond to the “subject at hand”. If
this were the case, then no new subjects would ever appear. Often, several
sundial-related subjects are discussed on the same day. However, since it is
the Sundial List, most of us do try to limit our subjects to sundial related
matter.
My last letter was obviously about a sundial (a famous one by Tony Moss at
that), and it included the best existing photos of that sundial as well as a
photo of one of America’s only stained glass sundials. It was NOT about a
“train set”. I don’t think I broke any Sundial List rules, and lots of people
wrote to tell me they liked seeing the sundial photographs.
The courteous thing for you to do would be to simply ignore letters that don’t
interest you. We all do that. But none of us EVER tells anyone on the list to
shut up. How rude was that!
Think before you type.
Sincerely,
“that guy”
p.s. You might want to do a grammar and spelling check on your letters before
you send them. I’d be embarrassed if I were you. They make you look ignorant
and uneducated.

let these people know to call fedex next time
why would you actually go as far as filling out a form
call if you arent sure wouldnt you know if you were tracking a package
without filling out something tell them to use some common sense
this is not a big threat

That's rather neat. Of course the reason for the climb is the guy has no watch.
Are there any plans for that sundial? It looks like something buildable on a
small lathe - (a scale model of course!).
