When you write something like that Sam without the slightest hint of
objection from anyone else then even I have to concede the
unchallenged luxuries of saying whatever you wish,something which
happened after 1905,then any semblance of a conversation nigh on
impossible.
You need a trip to the north pole, Gerald... not only will you see
the sun go around 361° of the horizon in 24 hours, but with the simple
telescope, you can see that Polaris stays with half a degree of the
polar axis the whole 24 hours, confirming that the earth axis is tilted
with respect to the ecliptic resulting in seasons.
Prepare to stay for six months so you can watch the sun "sink away"
as we head into winter.
