Ep 118: Why Isn't October the Eighth Month?, and The Ten O'Clock Line


Listen Later

Why isn't October month #8 and December month #10?  And what is the Ten O'Clock Line?  

Rafe digs back into tracking time with days, months, and years and finds the source of the wackiness that is month names.  Furthermore, a chance encounter in central Indiana reveals an interesting surveying trick using a spear, a clock, and the sun.

April showers bring May flowers, and Mayflowers bring Pilgrims.
