A reasonable request and an answer just for you.
Each day the Earth rotates once (and a little bit) on its axis. If you look at 
the fixed stars, you must see apparent rotation of these stars centred on the 
extended axis of rotation, especially if you use a camera on time exposure 
fixed to the thing which is rotating. This is of course the the nightly star 
trails. And no you won't see those circles if the camera is pointed at the 
celestial equator despite all of Allen's protestations that the angle of the 
camera axis doesn't matter.
Most people can't see this directly -- quite apart from not having the time to 
sit around -- it is likely they would be distracted by all those garden snails 
roaring past disturbing the neighbourhood. How much less likely are they to see 
something which happens more than 365 times more slowly? Especially with the 
distraction of all those snails rocketing past, the stars streaking across the 
sky, the grass growing!
But to be practical. The problem is that we are trying to photograph something 
moving very slowly while sitting on something that is rotating very fast. If 
you want to see it, you have to remove the influence of the fast motion of the 
thing you are sitting on and the inconvenient angle of the attention grabbing 
rotation. That is covered in several mechanisms I have illustrated, posted and 
described and which no one will address.
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
In as few words as possible -
If the Earth is revolving about the Sun, and
This revolution is in a plane with the Sun at one focus, and
We position a camera on this plane,
Z axis orthogonal to the plane, X axis tangential to the orbit, Y axis radial 
to the Sun, and
We cause the camera to move in an orbit in the same manner as the Earth, and
There are stars all about us, and
We open the shutter periodically for a short exposure over a period of a 
minimum of a month or three,
Just how is it possible that we would NOT see an annual set of star trails 
centred on the ecliptic pole?????
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I once saw an amazing 30 s of motion picture film showing five years in the 
life of a glacier. It flowed like a raging river in massive flood. Had I spent 
30 s watching someone fitting the camera to the post for the daily shot, I 
would not have seen the glacier moving -- the seals and the penguins would have 
simply been too distracting. Besides, who believes something as solid as very 
old ice moves? Ridiculous! Preposterous!
And yes -- I could be wrong. Would you care to wager against me?

PS As I've said before several times, the existence of annual star trails does 
not prove heliocentricity. In my first post on this subject I explained how 
this would work in a geocentric model.

Dear Paul,
Just for my sake, could you please restate your method of detecting the second 
movement in as few words as possible. Can you do it like Neville does as listed 
separate steps that can be agreed or not agreed? Do consider the possibility 
that your explanation could be wrong. 
 
I can assure you that Neville would immediately concede if heliocentrism could 
be proved. He has had to do this once before when he wrote a paper regarding 
the moon's shadow path across the earth during a solar eclipse. There was an 
error in the paper and it was picked up by a Christian scientist. I personally 
felt sick about it. But Neville graciously withdrew the paper from his website 
and went back to the drawing board so to speak. He is a man with exceptional 
integrity and as I said to Regner our belief in a creator is not dependant upon 
geocentricity being the truth. 
 
Sorry to be a pain.
 
Jack

This heliocentrist is NOT saying that the second (annual revolution) motion 
cannot be detected. I have been describing how it CAN be detected for a year 
and a half but unfortunately this seems to be in most everyone's dark cupboard 
into which none of you seem to have the courage look.
I've tried to remove the subject from this emotional exclusion zone by shifting 
the phenomenon to Mars but that didn't work either. See several short posts 
"Translational motion of Mars". 
Egocentrism? Spelling error or is there a point here that I am missing?
