Since we know that the north and south poles have some <A HREF="http://science.nasa.gov/newhome/headlines/ast21jun99_1.htm" REL="nofollow">REALLY long days</A> in their summers, it makes sense that the length of day varies according to latitude (distance from the north or south pole). Anyway, we discovered that San Diego (where we once lived) has an hour more of sunlight during the winter and an hour less of sunlight during the summer than the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area (where we now reside).love2learnmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548471887979257624noreply@blogger.com
