if we spin him round during the 'happy hour', will he still be happy? Perhaps
we would be happy and he would be unhappy? Perhaps its all equivalent anyway?
JA could draw a diagram and Allen could do the colouring.

Love the imagery of your first paragraph! I believe the trendy vernacular is
LOL.
I answered J A quickly while working on something else -- the Bonkers Machine
-- and neglected to provide the motion you suggest below. In my imagination, I
thought of the Earth's relationship to the Sun in the the same way we tend to
think of the Moon's relationship to the Earth -- "If we always see the same
face, it can't be spinning!" but clearly J A did say 'stop'. You will recall a
protracted but ultimately successful effort to convince one member that this is
so. It is a common error and despite my slight affinity for this subject, I
fell into the trap. If you will allow me to set the Earth spinning in this
synchronous manner I believe that we will again see all the stars not just half
of them.
I agree that star trails -- about CP or EP -- do not demonstrate which bodies
move and which don't and how. As I've remarked before, the planetary gear box
is not so named idly. An explanation of what is occurring is possible
regardless of which gear we've pinned to the mat. This whole debate about star
trails is a mentally challenging frustrating largely acedemic exercise but I
believe that the non existance of EP trails is a falsehood and I have not yet
given up the fight to show that that is so. As they say in the movies -- Watch
this Space!
