Attention Dialists! I'm feeling very frustrated. NASS put me in charge of accumulating from you all frequently asked sundial questions. This is a very important project since it will eventually be of great help to all beginning dialists, and even to some of you old timers.
I have received many e-mails from beginners supporting the FAQ project, yet only ONE person, Bill Gottesman, has given me his list of questions! All of you are, or have been a beginning dialist. Just try to remember some of the basic questions that you had when you first started out then jot them down and send them to me. The British Sundial Society has expressed great interest in joining NASS in the FAQ project as well as a similar project to publish a glossary of sundial terms. It is my job to assemble FAQs from NASS members and you people on the sundial list. Someone else will do the same for BSS. Once we have a list questions and glossary terms we will probably form a binational committee to provide simple easy-to-understand answers to the questions and definitions of sundial terms. Next week I'll be sending letters by US mail to those NASS members who aren't on the net asking them for their questions. You guys could really help us out if you'd only send me a few good sundial questions. Any question is ok to submit, even or especially some of the questions that have appeared previously on the sundial list. PLEASE HELP! John Carmichael 925 E.
