Hi all
Does anyone have this feeling that in certain days of the year that NIGHT time feels longer than DAY time. For me it is like I fall asleep and wake up in the middle of night to find that the night is still young. Does it have something to do with equinox or some other earth-sun phenomenon? Thanks for any explainations. |

Thanks for any explainations. Changes are quickest at the equinoxes as can be seen in greater shift in declination per day he http://web.gc.cuny.edu/ees/weather_climate/analemma.gif |

You're not the only one with this feeling, I feel the same, it's real, and I
know why. Here it is in a nutshell... you're getting too much sleep. This happens when you get a long spell of lousy viewing weather and instead of staying up all night watching the stars, you're sleeping. If these symptoms persist, drop everything you're doing and take a two week trip to Arizona...bring your telescope. If your wife or you boss complain, tell them you're only following doctor's orders.:-) Al "William" wrote in message om...
