I admit to laughing, but alas there are some well documented incidents
during the Sydney Olympics from people in the northern hemisphere who wanted
to know if holding the events at night would disadvantage the athletes. I
guess not all were at school when the planetary orbits were covered!

Sadly, yes, there are plenty of people that don't quite understand such
things in the simplest possible form!

I had a chuckle about it, and totally agree with Cheryl, some people don't
understand the sence behind it.

And some, I have to admit, don't comprehend (am not talking about kids),
that it is day in Australia, when the Northern Hemisphere snuggles in bed.

Northern & southern hemispheres? It's longitude not latitude that
determines the timezones g

Err... Sibille, the difference between Northern and Southern
Hemispheres relates to the seasons, not to the hours of light and
dark. We're in the middle of summer here in Oz.

I love it Cheryl.

You are most welcome. I really laughed hard as I know people that don't
quite get it!
