Willy,
When NASS was young I undertook a similar exercise β illustrating how a prominent obelisk might be used as a gnomon. http://www.twigsdigs.com/sundials/washmon/washmon.htm Bob _____ From: sundial [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Willy Leenders Sent: Thursday, December 12, 2013 9:20 AM To: Sundial sundiallist Subject: Taipei 101 no gnomon for a sundial Taipei 101, the second tallest tower in the world is represented on numerous websites as gnomon of a sundial. A circular structure in a small park next to the building is designated as a pattern for the hour lines. To those who have this nonsense stand on their (Dutch) website or insert on the Dutch Wikipedia, I made ββit clear in a drawing on a satellite picture how a sundial with the building as a gnomon would look like. http://www.wijzerweb.be/Taipei.html I invite you to continue my action in your language area. Willy Leenders Hasselt in Flanders (Belgium) Visit my website about the sundials in the province of Limburg (Flanders) with a section 'worth knowing about sundials' (mostly in Dutch): http://www.wijzerweb.be
