What time is it, Harriet? I'm starving, but I guess it's not time for lunch yet.
Let's see. According to my iphone, it's just a few minutes past noon.
What? I thought my watch was wrong. Shouldn't the sun be overhead if it's noon?
Oh, Don, I can tell you weren't listening in science class last week. The sun is only overhead at noon for 2 days a year.
Haha, very funny.
No, really. Mrs. Sorenson explained it. The Earth goes around the sun at an angle and that changes where the sun is at noon.
But then those old clocks that measured time by the sun shadow were all wrong.
Emm, not exactly. They're just not the same as the time we keep on our computers.
