  1. The sun should be at it's highest at mid day and no correspondence will be entered into. That's the way it is.  We are a WORLD connected these days so lets get smart and use a 24 Hour time reference. Not AM and PM. (just for starters)  You could fudge an hour if your location is isolated.. Long twilight is a feature of high latitudes  because the sun peeps around the edge the closer you get to the Pole ,but you get short days in Winter. In the tropics the Sun. sinks fast.  Nev

  2. We are at LAt 36 S Here in Melbourne Twilight effects are more noticed at Higher Latitudes. Eventually the sun never rises above the Horizon in some places for a while. People living in those places often experience some mental instability as a result.  Nev

  3. I believe your natural clock is a strong factor and back of the clock work will actually Make you Quite sick and shorten your life Potentially where it's done a lot. At one stage my log book showed 76% of my fling over Particular period was Night flying? I was falling to sleep driving home after duty and recall 4 days without  what.you call a proper sleep.  That is NOT safe nor good for you. Nev

  4. Victorians can COPE with that OME. Living in the lush tropics has few challenges.  unless you want to drive utes through swollen  rivers and have a moored Yacht in a cyclone. ALL self inflicted.. Here where things are always tough we live by being civilised and using OUR wit's. It's different. I recall driving my ex Mt Tom Price Ford Transit XL. VAN. Yellow in colour and with a Giant air conditioner on the roof, at Night in Colllns street A bloke drove up on my right  and his passenger. wound the Left window down and passed ME a cool Beer .freshly Opened. JUST How good is THAT?? The Tribe work together. In some places they'd TAKE YOUR Beer. Anyhow as I said before, we're FULL and the weather is unbearable.

      I know that because of personal experience. Real People, no actors. so I'll run it before you, if I may.

     A said to a Sydney transport driver Used to take crew to the PUB. "warm One today" In my usual warm and friendly tone and  He replied

     "Better than Bloody Melbourne" He'd put two and two together as he  was Instructed to "Take the Melbourne crew to the Hilton" or whatever palace we went to. and had guessed it was us.  Now don't lose concentration as it gets complex from here.

     The actual instruction was more likely to be along the lines of "Take those Lazy Melbourne poofters to  the usual Dive"  but I digress. Ther's more

     I said   "OH you have been to Melbourne a bit Have you.?. No sarcasm or eyerolling. You don't try that stuff with these boys.   THE REPLY.

       "Yeah I was there for an hour  ONCE and  THAT  was  enough" 

     It's possible this appears as  nothing worth writing Home about but just think. THEY walk among us. Talk to other people and VOTE. This happened while ago but do things get Better or do we just get used to it and think of ENGLAND. Here goes I hope I haven't run out of time.  Ah there It's working see? Nev

  5. Switzerland is a lot different from US. It Plays a neutral Game  Runs  Swiss Bank in  a crime AIDINGing way and every day is like Sunday The Gnomes  of ZuriK are famous  AT least It's CLEAN. Live there? CAN that be done? I'd much rather live HERE, MATE. .  Nev

  6. Unfortunately this KIND of output just Put's good people OFF a political career. There ARE some good ones but nothing is ever said about them. Also the BAD ones have all the power and are rewarded for services rendered by the already Powerful and want more of It. Representing people without means  is a poor business plan IF it's Money you want. You can look in the mirror though. Nev
