Re: accruate "sundials"

To Chris

Go ahead, justify the rotation of the Earth to the distant stars as the
author is plainly stating the erroneous fact that most people are wrong
when they correctly identify axial rotation as 24 hours/360 degrees.

http://hypertextbook.com/facts/1999/JennyChen.shtml

One independent rotation with one value and no choices so you can
forget that relativistic homocentric rubbish of choices with references
and clocks as these exotic garbage can all be traced to Flamsteed and
Newton.Most people already know that warped space is rubbish,they just
don't know exactly how.The answer is found in the correct relationship
between axial and orbital motion but as you are not an astronomer,you
would not know this.Go back to being a celestial peeping tom.
