Dear John, You are right to point out the error of Doug's ways. I have been known to do this myself :-)
That said, this isn't quite right either... > It is only the benighted people who > are forced to live in the northern > hemisphere who persist with the > belief of a southerly sun. I have several times seen the sun due north in the northern hemisphere: in the Arctic and in Singapore, to take two examples. Likewise, you can see the sun due SOUTH in the Antarctic and, without leaving Australia, you can see the sun due south in Darwin or Cairns or, indeed, anywhere just a little bit north of Alice Springs. Next month is a good time of year to see whether I am right! Very best wishes Frank --------------------------------------------------- https://lists.uni-koeln.de/mailman/listinfo/sundial
