councilman24 36 #18 October 30, 2009 Um, 30 degrees would be TWO hours, if I'm not mistaken. 360/24 = 15 degrees per hour, nominal width of a time zone. I'm old for my age. Terry Urban D-8631 FAA DPRE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually, you can't just pick up and turn the entire sundial anyway. Properly set up, the gnomon (the do-hickey that casts the shadow) is aligned with true north. You can, on some sundials, adjust the numbers so they coincide with DST, but that, in my opinion, is just wrong.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The idea of DST is stupid anyway, but it's the government telling us when to wake up and when to have lunch, so what ya gonna do?quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baksteen 84 #25 October 30, 2009 Daylight Saving Time... Yet another acronym i didn't know. Interestingly, Wikipedia shows an image of a poster realting to 'DST' being implemented. Slogan: "Get your hoes ready!" It must have been really entertaining to hear politicians chant this religiously. Back on topic, yes, it's stupid. I've never understood why the clock must go back forward in summer. Let's just maximise the number of skydivable hours and simply leave the clocks at wintertime year round.
