One of the things I like to do is follow the sun

on my map.

Spring begins when the sun is directly over the equator. Summer begins when the sun is directly over the Tropic of Cancer. When the sun drops to the equator six three months later Fall gets underway and when the Sun goes over the Tropic of Capricorn winter begins and the cycle repeats itself. 

Right now as I sit here it looks like at Local Apparent Noon the sun will be pretty close to being directly over the island of Hawaii.

Local Apparent Noon (LAN) is when the sun is at it's highest point of the day and that doesn't necessarily agree with what the clock says.

================================

I just read somewhere that 12% of Americans believe that Noah's Ark was married to Joan of Arc. 

While I do not know if it is true or not it certainly would not surprise me to find out it is true.
