* Some years ago I purchased a Solaris Sundial, a clever small
plastic spherical one floating in water which can be adjusted for
the site latitude, and can be corrected for magnetic variation,
since it has a magnet built into it. The dial is made in France,
apparently, and the little instruction manual, which I still have,
lists Sculptures-Jeux, Paris, copyright 1990. A few years ago the
dial slipped away and I have not found it since. Does anyone have
any price and ordering information for this dial? I'd like to
replace it. Thanks for your help. The brochure says the sundial
was created by Bernard Vuarnesson, and a short history of sundials
is provided, written by Gerard Oudenot.
