There is something I always wanted to know about the southern hemisphere:

1- Does gravity make your blood rush to your head?

2- and do toilets really flush counter clockwise?

Leave a post on here, and if we don't get a RR within say 2 - 3 weeks we'll send Shaun out to
have a gander.

penis ?

No, this is a minomer. We don't flush toilets we **** in a doggie type bag and then export our waste
to the USA, they then sell it as MacDonalds Thus the expression "jus' chewin' the **** !"

We night ride all year long, no matter what time of the season it is, sometimes we even go
after 10pm.

So you are telling me i am wrong, when you live many hundreds of miles away? Take note that you have
no idea of any other factors involved. My claim was based on direct observation. there is no
science, or math required, except that i glanced at my watch (that is kept up to date with my
computer, that is also kept up to date with an atomic time server).

That's what I was wondering, I'm used to my HAWG where everything just sinks to the bottom. I'm
thinking of the MULE as a gift for my brother (and he better not be reading this post) and the
battery could be a factor in the decision. His lights don't have a helmet mount yet but if he does
get a helmet mount I want the MULE to be up to the job.

I always wondered why the Bic Mac tastes vaugely of Vegamite...

Actually we re-export it all over the world. People comnplain that McDonalds tastes like ****, but
hey still eat it. The power of marketing.

Thousands of miles away actually...

Whoaaa Travis, I was only talking about sunset. As in when the sun dips below the horizon. This is
deterministic. The length of the day is determined by your latutude and date. Now if time zones were
not a factor, the sun would be at it's highest point (transit) at 12:00PM (mid-day).

This can be calculated at: http://aa.usno.navy.mil/cgi-bin/aa_pap.pl

Farmington, Franklin County, Maine (longitude W70.1, latitude N44.7): Begin civil twilight 4:18 a.m.
Sunrise 4:55 a.m. Sun transit 12:41 p.m. Sunset 8:27 p.m. End civil twilight 9:04 p.m.

Potsdam, St. Lawrence County, New York (longitude W75.0, latitude N44.7): Begin civil twilight 4:37
a.m. Sunrise 5:14 a.m. Sun transit 1:00 p.m. Sunset 8:47 p.m. End civil twilight 9:24 p.m.

Potsdam is at exactly the same latitude as Farmington and the length of the day is the same, but
Potsdam sits 5° west in the same time zone. So everything in Potsdam lags Farmington by 20
minutes. Now how much light pollution is in a certain place is a different story. ;-) (Potsdam
aslo has dark skies)

BTW- for where I live right now Rauenberg-Rotenberg, Germany (longitude E8.7, latitude N49.3): Begin
civil twilight 04:36 Sunrise 05:19 Sun transit 13:25 Sunset 21:32 End civil twilight 22:15

The length of my day is only about 40 min longer, but because the CET timezone is enormous,
encompasing most of western Europe, I sit quite far west in it. I have a sun transit of 1:35PM,
which gives me quite a bit of extra evening sun.

I think the worst of theirs that I tried was that short lived sourdough burger. That was sooo foul.
I could only eat three bites before tossing it. Yuck.
