Hi John, I am looking forward to the NASS conference in Tucson. Marking lines on a horizontal surface around the Kitt Peak Solar Telescope is a great idea. You may have mentioned the Mayall dial at Kitt Peak -- it is worth seeing. The Mayall & Mayall book was one of the first I read on dials. I also look forward to seeing the dial on the campus of that great school -- The University of Arizona.
My wife and I saw a delightful French movie, "Amelie". A Gnome was in the movie. Does anyone know if the word is related to the word gnomon? We are getting into a French mood because we are taking my youngest son to Paris July. I have directions (thanks to this list) to the Denis Savoie dial that is on the cover of his book. Does anyone have the location of 3 or 4 "don't miss" dials around Paris? I would appreciate any advice on Paris dials. Take Care, Warren Thom (41.6498 N 88.0964 W) -
