sorry...It should have read the period of daylight varies as much as 6 hours
from solstice to solstice.

Hmmm... can someone help me out?  A quick check of my astrolabe, 
with a plate for St. Paul, MN, gives sunset at about 1618hrs for 
the winter solstice, and about 1943 for summer - about a 3 1/2 hr
variance.  Am I missing something?
