Equation of Time

I wasn't sure where to put this - sort of watch related but also not.



I was digging around for some information on the equation of time and came across this site:

http://www.analemma.com/

It has the best diagrams, movie clips, and the math to explain this that I've ever seen. I think even some of our "artsy" members could follow this (you know who you are)! Enjoy!
