Huguenot Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 The Mayans certainly had a strategy.However, they wouldn't have been able to resolve the fact that the earth doesn't go around the sun in fixed multiples of the time it take the earth to revolve on its axis.If you want time to work on an annual basis, then you need to accept that 3pm will be a moveable feast, as it were.Crikey, somtimes I bore myself... ;-) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/4427-dont-forget-to-put-your-clocks-back-tonight/page/2/#findComment-142765 Share on other sites More sharing options...
