Really good article on sun dials. It seams obvious that inclining the gomon as it is probably misspell so that it points directly at the sun reduces the noon day sun. I love the fact that the striking of the clock in Julius Caesar is similar to the wrist watch in Ben Hur. I like the fact that rich people had jeweled sun dials and Charles the first gave his sun dial away before he was chopped.
