Hello again;

I read this at:
http://www.sundialsoc.org.uk/HDSW.htm

Part 17
>When we look at the Sun we are observing it from a moving
>platform. It is the varying speed around its elliptical
>orbit and the tilted axis which are responsible for the
>daily variations accounted for by the Equation of Time.

I'm confused about the varying speed part.
Does the earth actually change speed as it travels around
the sun or is it just the way we perceive it?

thanks again;
brent
