Hello dialists,
I read Marilyn Vos Savant's (the person with the highest measured IQ) column 
this morning, and found an interesting question and response which I'm not 
sure is correct.

To paraphrase:  The question was, "Over the span of a year do all places on 
earth recieve on average exactly 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night." 
 Marilyn's response was that indeed this was the case.  
        Incidently I suspect her response is wrong because of the fact that 
the Earth's orbital speed is different during different times of the year 
giving the north hemisphere a slightly longer summer.
        Anyway, I'd like to hear what others think.
Troy
