You are on the sphere and the stars are fixed. Rotate the sphere in your mind. Consider the star trails you would observe. Now rotate the paper through 23.5 degrees and rotate the sphere in your mind again, but this time more slowly. Should you see the same sort of star trails? But there is no rotation about the ecliptic poles. There can't be, because the ecliptic poles are just like ordinary star positions on the celestial sphere. If there was such rotation, then the right ascension and declination coordinate system for stars would not work (as Allen has already stated). Therefore the World does not orbit the Sun. Therefore heliocentrism is wrong. Therefore acentrism is wrong. Therefore the World does not rotate diurnally. Regner, your comments? Martin, your comments? Robert, your comments? Carl, your comments? Robert B, where are you when we need you? ... Neville www.GeocentricUniverse.com<http://www.geocentricuniverse.com/>
