Brent,

In my province, where I know about all sundials the biggest blunder in terms of 
time difference between the indicated time and the actual time, is  an 
equatorial sundial with the hour digits in reverse order.
He may be right in the southern hemisphere.

Visit my website about the sundials in the province of Limburg (Flanders) with 
a section 'worth knowing about sundials' (mostly in Dutch):
