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
