The name of the event derives from Latin and means equal night, giving the impression that both day and night are exactly 12 hours long. Our Earth is tilted as it orbits the Sun, which is the reason we have seasons on Earth.Īstronomical fall begins on the day of the equinox. In Toronto, the day of the fall equinox is just under 3 minutes shorter than the previous day in Miami, roughly 2000 kilometers or 1200 miles farther south, the difference is only about 1 minute and 30 seconds. On the shortest day of the year, the winter solstice, the day-to-day difference reaches zero.Īt the same time, locations closer to the poles experience larger day-to-day differences. After the fall equinox, days still get shorter, but at an ever-decreasing rate.

There must be a feeding of the frontal and parietal lobes as much as the pecs and lats. Too many rely on the ubiquitous “they” for cognitive sustainability. The forgotten organ to be fed the pablum of the universe until its able to gnaw of larger bites of the steak of life. If education were a need, too many would be starving. That which resides inside is what is hard to find and retain. All other materiel’s can be gotten and forgotten too easily. I have but one cranium that I need to fill. Preparation is in the mind of the expectant. Raid my neighbours and pilfer from the unaware. Lest there be a shortage, I will go guerilla. Should I too amass more to store?
