Am I the ONLY person amongst this august group who didn't know that the altitude of the setting Sun is different Solstice to Equinox? (the speed the center of the sun sets- angular size only changes +/-1 min.
Somebody could use this with their sweetie- "Honey, you know what day this, don't you? The Sunset is fading fast, so Kiss Me Quick.
In Summer/Winter, 2 min 30 sec, in Fall/Spring, 2 min 21 sec. If you are skeptical, ask any Astrologer.
