Dear Roger, Delighted to see that you heed my Rule 2:
2. Never believe anything you read anywhere [else] without checking. Very properly you have checked my assertions and found them wanting! That's the kind of guy I like! I was basing my false assertions on a report from an erstwhile colleague of mine who was in India for three years. He told me about his frightening taxi ride 18 months ago to the site of this sundial - all for my benefit! He DID add "This complex seems to be work in progress and maybe one day there will be better access." It seems this has happened already which is very quick by local standards! I very much echo this thought: > In any case, celebrate the return of > the sun, the winter solstice at 10:44 > UTC 21 Dec 2016. I stood to attention just under two hours ago and feel much better as a result. Very best wishes Frank 13:34 UTC 2016-12-21 --------------------------------------------------- https://lists.uni-koeln.de/mailman/listinfo/sundial
