Stephen Tonkin lives just down the road and I greatly respect him and
his vast knowledge and helpfulness. Should he and I happen to disagree
on some matter that in no way diminishes my regard for him. Yet it
appears that any syllable of disagreement with your view is grounds
for certification as insane and brings out the vilest obcenities.
Perhaps that is a requirement of the christianity you brag of.

By the way I am not a teacher though I do occasionally talk to
children in schools.

I offer you another opportunity to address the problem raised by your
proposal of 24 hours per 360 degrees of rotation - that, in 6 months
time, a clock registering 24 hours per 360 degrees will say noon at
midnight.

Miss this one and, to the relief of all, I'm out of here.

Cheers

Martin
