We have a sundial (not a butterfly best we can do here is the occasional lost Monarch) at out local park where you stand in the apex and become the "arm" yourself -- Tag loves it -- but he asked the same question which made me go google it ages ago -- it has to be oriented latitude specfic -- The question he asked was "can it tell me the time where Nana is?? (Atlanta). AS to butterlies we dont get many but we do seem to have an abundance of Dragonflies -- the news folks here say it is due to all the foreclosed homes with swimming pools that have become mosquito generators -- so mother nature is striking back by sending zillions of "mosquito hawks" I can sit and watch dragonflies all day they are such elegant fliers.

you know - that's the second time the phrase " you learn something new every everyday" was sent to Peter..... and he's the one doing the teaching.....

:roll:

Well.that's a new one on me too.....

A Gnomon a Sundial certainly makes a difference form a Gnomon a toadstool

Joe -- the expression "You learn something new everyday" normally in English refers to ones self NOT to the person your addressing who in this case is the teacher....its an expression of appreciation NOT of sarcasm.


Leif

and "pulling your leg" is - just that
