You might call it an inverse oriel ;-)

Every time I see the explanation which has 366 rotations in 365 days
it makes me shake my head,I wonder what happens when they encounter
the leap year from Mar 1st 2011 until Feb 29th 2012 which have 366
days in it ! -

So we have a Harvard/NASA explanation while the center of discussion
here is daily temperature fluctuations which would occur within a 24
period where local influences dominate the normal response of
temperature rises and falls due to the rotation of the Earth 1461
times across 4 years.

No offence,you would have to be a bunch of dummies to go along with
366 rotations in 365 days and I am not talking about the ability to
remain silent,if anger or intense irritation is not present then there
must be tumbleweeds going through your minds.

Anyone want to predict that temperatures will fall and rise within the
next 24 hours and the cause behind it ?,I wouldn't count on the NASA/
Harvard explanation which is merely an extension of the one that was
conceived in the late 17th century U.K..
